War

Muscovite shelling of Kharkiv increased slightly during the day. They launched another missile strike early in the morning at a target in Pavlove Pole. In the middle of the day, an industrial zone in the southeast of the city was shelled with rocket artillery. There are wounded. Kharkiv oligarch Oleksandr Yaroslavsky, owner of the DCH company, returned to Ukraine after fleeing in mid-February 2022 due to a car accident. The car he was likely driving hit and killed a man. […]

The day was generally calm but difficult. The muscovites shelled the northeastern outskirts of the city with rocket artillery, killing six people and injuring 31. The morning began with three rocket strikes in different areas of the city. As a result, an apartment building, a school, and warehouses were partially destroyed, school and warehouses as well. Because of the attacks, transit operations on the Saltivka metro line and a number of bus, trolleybus, and tram routes in Saltivka were temporarily suspended. Regional and city authorities announced that the new academic year in schools and universities will begin remotely. […]

The day was relatively quiet overall, but there were some isolated instances of shelling on the northern outskirts of the city. A rocket attack struck the city center in the morning, destroying an apartment building and leaving numerous people wounded. An architectural group proposed a project to restore Pivnichna Saltivka, but the idea is highly questionable due to the constant shelling of that area and the threat of similar strikes in the future on the northern outskirts. […]

The first day of July was relatively quiet, although the muscovites did strike Kharkiv suburbs and its surroundings in the evening. After saying that it would be impossible to take USSR emblems down from the City Council building (citing the city legal department), the Council backpedaled, and by the evening city workers had already covered all soviet symbols on the building with fabric. Terekhov wants to replace one of the USSR emblems with a Kharkiv one (which Katherine II approved as a replacement of the Cossack emblem of the city). Hospitals of the Saltivka medical campus, which numerous times suffered from targeted strikes by the muscovites, will be repaired. Overall, 126 medical establishments have been damaged by shelling in the Kharkiv region. […]

Individual strikes on Kharkiv’s northern suburbs continue. There was a threat of a missile strike almost the entire day, and people were asked not to leave their homes and shelters unless absolutely necessary. Either scammers or muscovite agents started hanging posters on behalf of Zhylkomservis, instructing residents to leave their apartment doors unlocked so that Territorial Defense troops can enter without causing damage in order to establish combat positions, starting on 15 June and until the end of hostilities. International Criminal Court Prosecutor Karim Khan paid a visit to the city. He inspected the sites of muscovite shelling in Pivnichna Saltivka, city center, and other areas.  According to the Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor’s Office, muscovite shelling has damaged 224 educational institutions in Kharkiv and 150 in other settlements of the region. […]

Individual muscovite strikes on the northern outskirts of Kharkiv continue. There were no “traditional” midnight missile strikes on the city. The city has continued free use of public transport. Only a limited number of public transport vehicles are running, since a significant portion of the trams have been damaged, and passenger traffic in the metro has declined. The current daily ridership is 110,000, compared with almost half a million during the COVID quarantine. Work is underway in Pivnichna Saltivka to reconnect houses to the gas supply. Gas supply in the Malodanilivka Hromada, where the gas pipeline was damaged, has also been restored, and work is underway to reconnect the Derhachi gas supply. The occupiers and collaborators in the occupied territories are looking for teachers who will start using muscovite school programs in September. The occupiers have appointed a moscovia citizen as a gauleiter of the occupied Balakliya. […]

Isolated strikes on Kharkiv’s northern districts continue. A nighttime rocket strike was fired at one of Kharkiv’s industrial facilities. Mayor Terekhov has become less public, and the rhetoric in his statements has changed: he is now talking about the likelihood of repeated attempts by the muscovites to attack in the Kharkiv direction. Water quality studies have found deviations in iron content and turbidity in tap water in the city, as well as contamination by microorganisms in a number of sources. Kharkiv’s football club Metalist 1925 is currently training in the Kyiv region and planning to play at one of Kyiv’s stadiums next season. According to the police and the prosecutor’s office, more than 1,500 different sites were damaged in the Rohan Hromada when it was the frontline, from the first days of the invasion until March.

От завершився травень та календарна весна – входимо в українське літо. Поодинокі обстріли Харкова продовжуються – по північним околицям. Сильні обстріли смт Золочів, є загиблі та поранені. Військові зазначають, що зберігається загроза відновлення наступальних дій московитів на Харків. Міський голова Терехов заявив, що вважає за доцільне, щоби харків’янам, які лишилися без житла, були виплачені грошові компенсації за житло і майно, і щоби люди самі вирішили де вони будуть жити.У Харкові лишилося приблизно 20% школярів, але до онлайн-уроків підключається приблизно 90%. На Харківщині пошкоджено понад 200 шкіл (з 715 шкіл по області, тобто 30%), з них зруйновані – близько 100 шкіл. […]
