The Ukrainian regional governor confirmed that Russian S-300 missile strikes have wounded at least 16 people in Kharkiv, including two critically. These strikes hit a non-military area following an attack that claimed three lives in the same region days earlier.

Governor Oleg Synegubov reported that the missiles struck residential buildings. Kharkiv, located 30 kilometres from the Russian border, has faced frequent attacks since Russia’s military operation began in February 2022. The mayor confirmed the destruction of some residential buildings, emphasizing the absence of military targets in the area.

Authorities urged evacuation for approximately 3,000 residents in over two dozen villages near Kharkiv’s frontline. This directive came in response to intensifying Russian attacks in the region. Russian forces have maintained their offensive in Kharkiv despite losing territorial control.

Recent Attacks and Growing Threats

This latest strike follows a January 8 attack in the Zmiiv area of Kharkiv, which killed three people. On December 30 last year, a massive missile barrage in Kyiv resulted in 30 deaths and over 160 injuries. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated Russia targeted residential areas, including a maternity hospital.

The Ukrainian Air Force’s spokesperson noted Russia’s increased use of diverse missiles, including hypersonic, cruise, and ballistic types like the X-22, which are challenging to intercept. The Air Force reported shooting down 114 of 158 missiles and drones, indicating the severity of the attacks.

Previously, falling debris caused most damage and casualties, but the threat of direct missile hits has escalated significantly. Air Force Spokesperson Yuriy Ignat described the attacks as the “most massive missile attack” of the war, excluding the initial constant bombardments.
