Details: The prosecutor's office reported that at around 10:55 on 23 October, the Russian forces attacked the Osnovianskyi district of Kharkiv with two drones, preliminarily identified as Geran-3 types.
A house, a four-storey building, a circus building and cars were damaged. A 13-year-old boy was diagnosed with an acute stress reaction.
Terekhov reported strikes on a multi-storey building and another civilian facility and later on a house where a fire broke out.
Following a subsequent strike, the mayor reported that a car had caught fire. At that time, two people were known to have suffered from an acute stress reaction.
The Russians continued to attack the Osnovianskyi district. Terekhov's early report indicates that during one of the repeated strikes, they used a jet-powered Shahed.
After the latest strike, the mayor initially reported one injured, later clarifying that there were two injured, including a 12-year-old girl.
