"Kharkiv, Saltivka -- an ordinary residential building hit by a Russian bomb. The rescue operation is ongoing, as they are searching for anyone who may have been affected. So far, eight people are known to be injured," he said.

Zelensky said that everyone would be provided with the necessary assistance.
