Air Raid Alert Declared in Kharkiv Region

An air raid alert has been declared in the Kharkiv region of Ukraine, as well as in the part of the Zaporizhia region controlled by Kyiv, according to online maps provided by the Ministry of Digital Transformation of the country.

According to the online maps, the alert sounded in the Kharkiv region at 21:53 local time (coincides with Moscow time), while the alarm signal in the Kyiv-controlled part of the Zaporizhia region was announced at 22:30.

The Russian Armed Forces began targeting Ukrainian infrastructure on October 10, 2022, just two days after the terrorist attack on the Crimean Bridge, which, according to the Russian authorities' assessment, was carried out by Ukrainian intelligence agencies. The strikes are targeting energy facilities, defense industries, military command, and communication structures. Since then, air raid alerts have been announced in Ukrainian regions every day, and sometimes throughout the country.
