At least four people have been killed in a Russian missile strike in Ukraine’s eastern Kharkiv region, regional military governor Oleh Syniehubov wrote on Telegram on Monday.
Another 18 people were injured in the attack on the city of Merefa, he wrote. Those killed were two men, aged 50 and 63 and two women, aged 41 and 52.
Several residential houses, high-rise buildings and shops were damaged, he said. The settlement of Bezliudivka was also attacked by a drone, he said.
Russia has been waging a full-scale war against Ukraine for more than four years.
