"The Kharkiv regional prosecutor's office said the strike completely destroyed the house, trapping the family beneath the rubble. It said three children were killed twin boys aged two and their one-year-old sister along with their father, 34. The children's mother, who is 35 weeks pregnant, was pulled alive from the rubble by rescue teams, suffering from blast injuries, a traumatic brain injury, burns and hearing loss, prosecutors said."
"Volodymyr Bielyi, the mayor of Bohodukhiv, about 22km (13 miles) from the Russian border, announced on Facebook that the town would observe three days of mourning. We have lost what is most precious our future, he said, adding that the children's mother was fighting for her life in hospital. There are no words to console the family; there is no prayer that could heal the heart of a mother who has lost her children, he said."
