The corresponding statement was released today, January 24, by the press service of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The enemy’s failure to achieve any results on the battlefield continues his strategy of terror, including in the Kharkov direction, the report notes. “We see the use of missiles to destroy Kharkov and civilian killings in other cities of Ukraine.
The General Staff notes that in the last week alone the enemy launched 19 missile attacks on the Kharkov region. The enemy used 26 S-300 missiles and 3 Iskander-M ballistic missiles. Resulting in:
- 16 people died, including one child;
- 78 people were injured;
- 13 buildings were destroyed, including one hospital, three educational institutions, and six residential buildings.
In order to reduce the missile threat, the Armed Forces of Ukraine not only control the airspace, but also monitor in detail missile launch points and the logistics of their delivery, especially with the use of military transport aircraft, the General Staff notes.
The recorded intensity of shelling is directly related to the increase in the number of military transport aircraft that have recently been heading to the Belgorod airfield, the General Staff adds.
Let us remind you that today a Russian military transport aircraft Il-76 crashed in the Belgorod region of the Russian Federation. Russian propaganda claims that there were supposedly 65 Ukrainian prisoners of war on board the plane, who were “transported for exchange.”
