  2. Updated 11:22 PM: The number of victims in Kharkiv’s Kholodnohirsk district has risen to 6, says Oleg Sinegubov.

    “Among the wounded is a 19-year-old man in serious condition; he suffered severe burns,” the head of the OVA added.

  3. UPDATE:

    According to the Telegram channel Ukraine Context , which is considered close to the head of the Presidential Office, Kirill Budanov, there is no confirmation that the US has allegedly stopped providing intelligence to Ukraine.

    “Some channels have already started reporting that ‘the US has stopped providing Ukraine with intelligence,’ and that’s why Kyiv was attacked with ballistic missiles even before the alert was issued. However, this isn’t the first time Western intelligence has failed to detect Russian S-400 launches. Therefore, we shouldn’t jump to conclusions. So far, this isn’t true,” the report states.
