Russia launches biggest drone attack on Ukraine’s Kharkiv

The mayor says at least three people were killed and 17 wounded in the largest attack on Russian drones, on the second largest city in Ukraine in Kharkiv.

Ihor Terekhov says Russia overnight has launched 48 drones, as well as missiles and four ring bombs.

“We have a lot of damage,” he says, adding that three high -height residential buildings were beaten. Footage showed several floors of this building on fire.

Six people were killed and 80 were wounded throughout Ukraine the night beforeWhen Russia attacked the country with more than 400 drones and about 40 missiles.

Russia said the air attack was in response to “terrorist acts by the Kiev regime”, claiming that the military sites were targeted.

This came days after the bold drones in Ukraine, which targets Russian strategic warplanes in four deep air bases inside the country.

The SBU security service said that at least 40 Russian aircraft were struck during The spider web process last Sunday.

Ukraine says that 117 drones were used: they were first smuggled to Russia, then placed inside a wooden cabin fixed on the back of the trucks and hidden them under the surfaces that are running away.

The trucks were then transported to sites near the Russian air bases by drivers who were not apparently familiar with their goods. Then the drones were launched remotely.

Speaking to reporters late on Friday, US President Donald Trump said that the Ukrainians gave Russian President Vladimir Putin “a reason to enter and bomb hell from them last night.”

Russia launched a large -scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
