The Russians attacked residential areas and critical and social infrastructure, damaging 12 houses, a gas pipeline, an outbuilding and several vehicles. Two people were killed and two were injured.

Russian forces also bombarded Kharkiv and 11 other settlements in the region. A 50-year-old man was killed in Kozacha Lopan. In Malynivka, five people were injured – four men aged between 25 and 69 and a 50-year-old woman. In the village of Vodiane, a 47-year-old man was injured.

Russian drones also struck the Lozova district, cutting around 41,000 properties in Lozova and nearby areas off from the power grid. Power engineers are working to restore the electricity supply.
