Russia targeted the city of Kharkiv with a massive drone attack late at night on April 8, causing multiple fires and injuring at least one person.<\/p>\n

The attack injured at least one person as of midnight local time, Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov told<\/strong><\/a> the Ukrainian news outlet Suspilne. Earlier in the night, Terekhov had said<\/strong><\/a> that two people were injured in the drone strikes. \u00a0<\/p>\n

At least 15 explosions rocked Kharkiv late on April 8, according to Governor Oleh Syniehubov. Russia launched<\/strong><\/a> waves of Shahed-type attack drones in a “massive” strike on the city, causing fires and property damage.<\/p>\n

Over 20 drones<\/strong><\/a> targeted Kharkiv, Terekhov said, with 17 striking the Osnovyanskyi district. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Other drones struck the Shevchenkivskyi, Kyivskyi, and Industrial districts, damaging property, Syniehubov said. <\/p>\n

On the same night, Russia launched a large-scale drone attack against Dnipro<\/strong><\/a>, injuring at least 14 people. <\/p>\n

The northeastern city of Kharkiv<\/strong><\/a> is a frequent target of Russian aerial strikes. Throughout the full-scale war, Russia has relentlessly battered the city with large-scale missile, drone, and glide bomb attacks, often striking densely populated civilian districts. <\/p>\n

Last week, a mass Russian drone attack<\/strong><\/a> killed four people in Kharkiv and injured another 35, including a child. <\/p>\n

Russia continues to target Ukraine’s residential neighborhoods and civilian infrastructure amid a partial “ceasefire”<\/strong><\/strong><\/a> on energy facilities. Kyiv has presented the U.S. with evidence that Russia has violated the energy ceasefire<\/strong><\/strong><\/a> <\/strong><\/strong>on multiple occasions. <\/p>\n

Moscow has also refused repeated proposals from Washington for a 30-day ceasefire on all hostilities, even though Ukraine<\/strong><\/a> has said it is prepared to enter a complete ceasefire once Russia agrees to the terms. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\n
In Kyiv, skepticism about ceasefire reigns as Russia ramps up deadly attacks and US remains mute<\/div>\n
Following weeks of loud statements and attempts at diplomacy, the lack of clarity feels unsettling. Ukraine had agreed to a full ceasefire and got nothing in return. Russia had refused to comply. Over the past week, Russia further escalated its attacks on Ukrainian cities, killing dozens of civilia\u2026<\/div>\n
