Russian occupiers have once again launched an attack on Kupiansk, using so-called “KABs” — guided aerial bombs that caused significant destruction and injuries
As of the evening of April 22, seven residents have been wounded, and many buildings have been destroyed or severely damaged. This event once again highlights the scale of the destructive power of Russian aggression in the Kharkiv region. According to Oleg Synegubov, the head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, who provided this information on his official Telegram channel and Facebook page, the attack was carried out using three guided aerial bombs. As a result of the strike, at least 55 private residential buildings were destroyed or damaged, leaving their residents homeless or with serious damage to their homes. Initial reports from the head of the regional state administration indicated four wounded, but later this number increased to seven — all of the injured suffered various degrees of injuries. Journalists and witnesses at the scene provided further details about the situation. It is noted that all relevant services — rescuers, medics, and police — are now working in Kupiansk to provide necessary assistance to the victims and assess the damage. According to the State Emergency Service of Ukraine, three large fires broke out in the city as a result of the Russian shelling, which have already been extinguished by specialists. The fires destroyed several buildings and created additional difficulties for local residents, but emergency services responded quickly and managed to contain the flames. Local residents and official sources emphasize that these constant shellings are destroying the city’s infrastructure and creating a dangerous situation for civilians. Kupiansk remains one of the most affected targets in the Kharkiv region in this series of Russian attacks, with residents forced to live constantly in uncertainty and fear for their lives and property. Russian forces continue to use heavy weaponry against Ukrainian civilians, and the situation around Kupiansk remains tense. local authorities urge citizens to exercise caution, and all relevant services are working around the clock to stabilize the situation and provide aid to those in need. This event once again reminds us of the scale of destruction and human losses caused by Russia’s military actions against Ukraine, as well as the importance of strengthening defense measures and supporting those affected in the most difficult times.
