Quote from Zelenskyy: "Kharkiv Oblast. A Russian missile has hit a Nova Poshta depot. An ordinary civilian facility. Unfortunately, some people have been killed. My condolences go out to their families and friends!

As of now, 13 people are known to have been injured. All services are working at the scene, and the search and rescue operation is ongoing."

Details: Zelenskyy stressed that more pressure must be put on the terrorist state.

"We need to respond to Russian terror every day with our results on the front lines. We need to strengthen the unity of the world in the fight against terror even more. And we are doing that. Russia will achieve nothing with terror and killing. There is only one end for all terrorists: accountability for what they have done," he emphasised.

Oleh Syniehubov, Head of the Kharkiv Oblast Military Administration, later reported that six people were killed and 14 injured people were taken to hospital as a result of the Russian attack on the Nova Poshta depot in the Kharkiv district.

Some of the casualties are in a serious condition. Specialised services continue to work on the ground to deal with the aftermath of the attack.
