The regional prosecutor’s office reported this.
According to preliminary information, no people were injured. The broadcast of the TV signal is temporarily unavailable; they are working on resuming broadcasting, the State Special Communications Service reports.
The service reports that the broadcast of the television signal is currently temporarily unavailable, and work continues to resume broadcasting. At the same time, the broadcast of a number of radio stations in the FM range continues.
Under the procedural leadership of the Kharkov Regional Prosecutor’s Office, a pre-trial investigation has been launched into violations of the laws and customs of war.
The Kharkov TV Tower, which survived Russian bombing in 2022, partially collapsed during Russian shelling on April 22, 2024. This was a tragic blow to the city, because for 42 years the TV tower was not only the tallest building in Kharkov (240 m), but also a symbol of stability and unity.
In 2022, the TV tower received significant damage as a result of airstrikes, but miraculously was not completely destroyed. Its fall two years later was a painful reminder of the brutality of war and the destructive power of Russian aggression.
