Last night Russian troops remotely dropped time bombs on the city of Kharkiv. The police and rescuers closed off the affected area to start clearing operations.

The relevant statement was made by Suspilne on Telegram, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“Oleksandrivskyi Avenue in Kharkiv has been closed off, between Bohdana Khmelnytskoho Boulevard and Pozharskoho Street. Last night, about 01:00 a.m., Russian troops remotely dropped time bombs there. Bombs have a timer and may explode at any moment. Now rescuers and the police have closed off the quarter and are trying to prevent people from going out to make the area secure and start clearing operations,” the report states.

Half an hour later, journalists heard at least three blasts.

“Bombs are exploding chaotically, but people are still attempting to go out. Mines were dropped in the yards of two-storey residential buildings on Oleksandrivskyi Avenue,” the media reported.

A reminder that, on April 10, 2022, Russian troops were shelling Kharkiv Region. According to the preliminary data, 10 people were killed and 11 people were wounded.

On February 24, 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin initiated a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, starting a war. Russian troops are shelling and destroying the key infrastructure facilities, launching missile and air strikes on residential areas in Ukrainian cities and villages, torturing and murdering civilians.
