Kharkiv under fire

In recent days, Russian occupation forces have intensified shelling in Kharkiv and the region. Against this backdrop, the aggressors have also resumed attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure.

The situation in Kharkiv is dire, with the city under daily shelling. Additionally, power outages are occurring in Kharkiv and the region. Today, April 7, energy companies have intensified power outage schedules as the enemy struck a high-voltage grid owned by Ukrenergo.
