Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terehov reported initially that two Russian S-300 missiles hit the center of Kharkiv in the Kyivskyi district.
Over 11 months have passed since Russia commenced its "special military operation" which led to the death of at least 7,110 civilians and 11,547 injuries, according to the latest UN figures.
