KYIV - Russia attacked the Kharkiv region in north-eastern Ukraine with guided bombs on May 1, killing at least two people and wounding two others, the regional governor said.
The two people were killed when a car was struck in the village of Zolochiv, where a private home was also hit, governor Oleh Syniehubov said on the Telegram messaging app.
Ten private residences were also damaged but no casualties reported in a Russian attack on the city of Kharkiv, Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov said.
The Kharkiv region has come under intense fire this spring as Russian forces attacked civilian and energy infrastructure, and Ukraine says its air defences are increasingly stretched more than two years since Russia’s full-scale invasion.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said on April 30 Kyiv needed “a significant acceleration” in deliveries of weaponry
