President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky reacted to another enemy strike on Kharkiv and published a video from the scene of the tragedy. This Russian terror of guided air bombs must be stopped and can be stopped, he assures presidente. “Strong partner decisions are needed so that we can destroy Russian terrorists and Russian warplanes where they are. We have already proven that protecting people and lives from missile terror is real, in particular by clearing border areas of terrorist launchers. You also need to protect yourself from bombs. We need that determination,” the president said.

On that day, the air alarm in the city lasted more than 12 hours in a row. On the same day, the Russians tried justify attack on the Kharkov “Epicenter”, publishing fake videos in Tiktok.
