During the night of 6 to 7 June, the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv was the target of an unprecedented attack, "the worst since the start of the invasion".

This is what the city’s mayor stated the day after the strike. According to Ukrainian authorities, Russian armed forces subjected the population and the country's defenders to “a night of hell”.

Other strikes also took place in the city of Kherson, leaving two dead. In Kharkiv, three people lost their lives. According to the initial reports, four KAB guided missiles and 53 Shahed drones were launched on Ukrainian soil this Saturday.

According to Ukrainian television, four industrial buildings were damaged, and people may be trapped under the debris. A nine-storey residential building was also hit by a drone. Twelve flats caught fire.
