Days after Ukraine launched Operation Spiderweb, Russia on Saturday launched the "most powerful attack" on Ukraine's Kharkiv, launching more than 400 drones and 40 missiles.
Six people died and several were injured in the large-scale strike in Ukraine, Ukrainian officials told CNN.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky shared a post on X, saying that 80 people were injured, while some may still be under the debris.
"Today, rescue and emergency operations continued all day across various regions and cities of our country. Over 400 drones, and more than 40 missiles were launched by the Russians. 80 people were injured, and some may still be under the debris," Zelenskyy said on Saturday in a post on X.
"Unfortunately, not everyone in the world condemns such attacks. This is exactly what Putin exploits. He is buying himself time to keep waging war," the Ukrainian president added.
Further, the Ukrainian State Emergency Service confirmed the deaths of three firefighters in Kyiv, including three civilians.
