A Russian strike on the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv has killed three people and injured several others, according to local officials. Emergency teams rushed to the scene as firefighters battled flames and searched for survivors under the debris.
The attack comes amid growing concerns about intensified Russian assaults on civilian areas, especially as winter approaches and energy infrastructure becomes more vulnerable.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is traveling to Paris, where he is expected to meet French President Emmanuel Macron. The two leaders are set to discuss Ukraine’s battlefield needs, future military support, and Europe’s role in responding to Russia’s escalating attacks.
The meeting is viewed as especially important as Ukraine pushes for more international backing during a difficult phase of the war.
