Operation "Spider Web"/ Russia continues its revenge, dozens of drones attack Kharkiv

At least three people have been killed and 17 others injured in the largest Russian drone attack in Ukraine's second-largest city, Kharkiv, says the mayor, Ihor Terekhov.

The mayor said that overnight Russia launched 48 drones, as well as two missiles and four cruise missiles towards the city. There were also reports of attacks in the city of Kherson.

The overnight attacks in Kharkiv come after a large-scale Russian airstrike across Ukraine the night before, which killed six people and injured 80 others.

Russia claimed that the attack targeted military sites, which it said were in response to "terrorist acts by the Kiev regime."

This came days after bold drone attacks from Ukraine, which targeted Russian strategic fighter jets at four military bases deep inside the country.

At least 40 Russian aircraft were hit during that operation - Operation Spider Web - last Sunday, Ukraine's SBU security service said./ CNA
