– War crime
– What is happening in Kharkiv now is a war crime! It is a genocide against the Ukrainian people, says Oleg Sinegubov, who heads the military administration in Kharkiv, according to the BBC.
The video shows extensive damage, burnt out cars and rockets that did not explode, but which are stuck in the ground or in apartments. There are also pictures of the many killed and seriously injured.
Dozens of civilians die. It happens during the day when people go to the pharmacy, to get food, to get drinking water. It is a crime, says Sinegubov and continues:
– The fight continues! We want to survive, the people of the Kharkiv region, we help each other, we are united.

Desperate methods
Kharkiv is the second largest city in Ukraine and is located in the east of the country. On Monday, the city was subjected to some of the most intense attacks and street fighting since the start of the Russian invasion last week. It is interpreted as an escalation of the attack from Russia and President Vladimir Putin, writes Washington Post.
