“At 08:20 a.m., a missile strike was launched on Ukrzaliznytsia’s infrastructure facility in the city of Kharkiv. Six missiles were fired, presumably S-300. As a result, railroad tracks were slightly damaged, as well as warehouse premises. There were no military objects within that territory. The military have never used that territory, but there were humanitarian aid warehouses,” Tymoshko told.

In his words, six impact areas were discovered. Two more missiles were shot down, and their fragments fell in other districts of the city.
