A person was killed and three sustained injuries in a missile attack on the town of Derhachi, Kharkiv region, Thursday morning.

Kharkiv Regional Military Administration Head Oleh Syniehubov reported on the attack via Telegram, Ukrinform reports.

"It was relatively quiet in Kharkiv over the past day. The enemy didn’t bombard the city itself. However, the settlements across the region are suffering from strikes. The occupiers fired at the village of Mala Danylivka using multiple rocket launchers. This morning the enemy hit Derhachi with a missile. Unfortunately, one person died and three were injured," the Regional Military Administration head said.

The mission to restore gas supply in Kharkiv districts and villages across the region affected by shelling is underway," the Administration head said.
