Russian attacks on Kharkiv, surrounding area kill one, injure 17

Russian attacks on Orthodox Easter Sunday killed a woman buried under rubble and injured 24 in Ukraine’s northeastern city of Kharkiv and the
surrounding region, regional officials said.
Regional Governor Oleh Syniehubov, writing on the Telegram messaging app, said six people were injured in an overnight drone attack on the Osnovyanskyi district of Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city.
Prosecutors in Kharkiv region said 15 more were hurt in an attack later in the day by aerial bombs on the city centre.
“The next time it could hit my house. Why did it hit here? Just who is here? And on such a holy day. How? I cannot grasp it at all…” Natalia Avilova-Patrikeyeva said outside an apartment building with shattered balconies and windows blown out.
“I thought that at least on this day it would remain calm. At four in the morning there also was a strike. I don’t sleep, I don’t sleep at all.”
