Ukraine’s second-largest city faced increased Russian shelling today, while a column of Russian forces stretched out along a road north of the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, on the sixth day of Russia’s invasion of its neighbor.
The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry shared a video of one strike at the Kharkiv Regional State Administration building in the center of the city that left a huge ball of fire and smoke as several cars were passing through.
An emergency services official said the strike killed at least six people and injured 20 others.
EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said Tuesday that Russian shelling of civilian infrastructure that took place Monday in Kharkiv “violates the laws of war.”
