Russian bomb hits Kharkiv again: 12 injured, young woman killed

Original version ·

Another casual day in Ukraine’s second-largest city, where stepping out for groceries means playing Russian roulette with a 500-kg guided bomb.

It happened in the Kholodnohirskyi district of Kharkiv. This time, a Russian glide bomb slammed into a residential area, injuring twelve people and killing a 23-year-old woman who was just going about her day.

These glide bombs are basically Soviet-era massive explosives retrofitted with cheap wings and GPS. They aren't precision weapons; they are just dropped from miles away to obliterate whatever they drift into. And since Kharkiv is right next to the border, residents get about forty seconds of warning before impact—if they are lucky.

While the world debates red lines and weapon ranges, people in Kharkiv continue to live in a city where the sky itself is a constant threat.
