Two crews of the Ukrainian Red Cross Society (URCS) rapid response teams assisted those injured in the Russian UAV attack on Kharkiv.

“Last night, volunteers from the Kharkiv regional branch of the Ukrainian Red Cross provided assistance to victims at the scene of the attack. Two emergency response teams and dog handlers were deployed, searching the area and nearby flats, assisting the injured, supporting victims, and, together with medical personnel, rescuing a child,” URCS said on Facebook Monday.

As reported, a hostile drone strike on an industrial district of Kharkiv killed seven people and injured at least 30.

According to the State Emergency Service, a 5-story residential building was damaged and a fire broke out on a total area of 900 square meters.
