Russia launches drone strike on Kharkiv ‘in response’ to Belgorod attack

In retaliation to Ukraine’s alleged and fatal attack in Belgorod on Saturday, Russia launched a drone and missile strike on Kharkiv overnight, just hours later, injuring at least 28 people. Russia’s attack on Kharkiv marks the latest in a string of airstrikes on Ukrainian cities that began on Friday — what many are calling their biggest wave of aerial bombardment since the beginning of the war in February 2022.
