(Reuters) – Three people were killed and another five were wounded on Thursday after Russian forces fired rockets at a district in the northeastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv, the regional governor said.
“Three civilians were killed and five were wounded as a result of shelling of the Nemyshlyan district,” Oleh Synegubov, the governor, wrote on the Telegram messaging app.
Russia, which invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24, denies targeting civilians.
