Residents of the Ukrainian city, Kharkiv, which is just 60 miles across the border from Belgorod, were jolted by multiple air raid sirens overnight, as several waves of ballistic missiles and attack drones rained on the city center, injuring nearly 30 people and damaging private homes, hospitals and a hotel.
The attack appeared to be the latest in a series of Russian missile strikes on venues popular with reporters. This past summer, Russian missiles struck a well-known restaurant and a hotel in the eastern cities of Kramatorsk and Pokrovsk.
The weekend air assaults in Ukraine and Russia capped a week of intensified attacks by both sides on land, sea and air, signaling that neither Kyiv nor Moscow intends to de-escalate the war.
