On the night of June 7, 2025, Kharkiv was subjected to the largest and most powerful attack since the beginning of a full-scale war, Ukrainian media and local authorities reported. Russian troops used 53 Geran-2 drones, 4 guided aerial bombs and at least one rocket on the city, which caused at least 40-50 explosions in different areas of the city.
According to Kharkiv Mayor Igor Terekhov, the attack lasted about an hour and a half and was aimed at residential buildings, civilian enterprises and infrastructure facilities. As a result of the shelling, large fires broke out, including on the territory of one of the enterprises in the Kievsky district, where buildings were damaged and a threat to people arose.
According to recent reports, at least three people were killed in the attack, including two from an apartment building and one in the private sector. 17 people were injured, including children, including a 14-year-old girl and a one-and-a-half-month-old baby. Some of the injured are in serious condition. Rescuers continue to sort through the rubble in high-rise buildings where people may be.
Oleg Sinegubov, head of the Kharkiv Regional Administration, noted that the attack was accompanied by the use of various types of weapons, including Shahed kamikaze drones, missiles and guided aerial bombs, which makes it one of the most destructive during the entire conflict period.
Local authorities have issued an air alert, and work is continuing to eliminate fires and provide assistance to victims.
