There is currently no strike group near the Russian border with the Zolochiv community in the Bohodukhiv district, but Russia may go on the offensive there so that even more Ukrainian troops could be involved in the defense of northern Kharkiv region.
The Russian invasion army shelled the village of Bohuslavka in Kharkiv region’s Izium district, leaving a local woman killed and two other persons wounded, including a boy, 9.
Russian forces launched their offensive operation into northern Kharkiv region with limited manpower and have yet to commit significant reserves to the area, leading to a decreasing tempo of Russian advances and offensive operation.
As a result of the strike involving two aerial guided bombs that targeted the Epicentr home improvement hypermarket in Kharkiv, the number of civilians killed increased to four, and the number of injured – to 38.
