A Russian drone struck the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv late on Tuesday, prompting the evacuation of elderly women and children from their homes.
The unmanned aircraft attack forced vulnerable residents to abandon their apartments and seek safety elsewhere, according to local reports.
Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second‑largest city, has been repeatedly targeted since the war began, with civilian areas often bearing the brunt of aerial strikes.
Emergency services moved quickly to assist those displaced, guiding the affected families toward nearby shelters and providing basic assistance.
The situation remains fluid as authorities continue to monitor the aftermath of the drone strike and assess any further security needs in the city.
