Russian Drone Strikes Kill 4 in Ukraine's Kharkiv, Injure Children Amid Escalating Attacks

A large-scale Russian drone attack hit Ukraine's Kharkiv city, killing four people and injuring at least 17, including children aged 11 and 12.

The strikes set three residential buildings and an infrastructure facility on fire, with emergency teams reporting widespread destruction across two city districts, The Caspian Post informs via Ukrainian media.

The attack coincided with US, Ukrainian, and European officials meeting in Geneva to discuss new proposals aimed at ending Russia’s full-scale war in Ukraine.

Kharkiv has seen increasing Russian attacks throughout 2025, often targeting towns and villages far from the frontline. Just days earlier, on November 18, a 17-year-old girl was killed and nine others injured in a missile strike on Berestyn.
