The world’s eyes and ears are on the news from Ukraine… Russia, which continues its attacks for the east of the country, is also launching missile attacks on Ukrainian cities. Russia’s target this time was Kharkiv. While the painful balance sheet in the city was announced by the governor, the leader of Ukraine swore revenge.
The war, which started on the morning of February 24 with the order of Russian President Vladimir Putin, continues to take lives.
The Russian army, which had set the country’s capital, Kiev, as its main target from the first day of the war, retreated from the region after weeks of siege and a series of attack attempts, and turned its direction to the east of the country.
In this context, Russia targeted many cities in this region and secured the control of Lysychansk, which is also known as the ‘last fortress in Donbass’.
While the war is intensifying in the Donetsk region, Russia is also targeting Ukrainian cities with missiles.
GOVERNOR ANNOUNCED BALANCE SHEET
Russia’s target this time is the country’s second largest city Kharkiv it happened.
“Unfortunately, the death toll in the bombardment of Saltivka district has increased to 6,” Regional Governor Oleg Synehubov said in a statement on Telegram.

The governor added that 16 people were injured as a result of the attacks.
ZELENSKI TAKES AN Oath of Revenge
According to the news in Al Jazeera, Ukrainian leader Zelensli described the attack as “despicable”.
Zelenski, who evaluated the Russian attack as ‘a move that has no justification and shows the weakness of the attacker’, promised revenge.
The leader of Ukraine, in his message shared on Telegram, included the phrase “We will not forgive, we will take revenge”.
BOTH SIDES DON’T EXPLAIN LOSSES
Ukraine has announced that military casualties will remain a state secret until the end of the state of emergency.
Russia has been unwilling to disclose military losses for months. Moscow made its first and last official statement on the issue on March 2.
In the aforementioned statement, Russia’s loss of troops in the war was announced as 498. This data has never been updated since then.
MORE THAN 300 OFFICERS KILLED
While the Russian government rarely provides updates on the number of deaths suffered by its armed forces, announcements by local governments and newspapers indicate that more than 300 officers have died in the fighting.
