At least two people have been killed and 33 injured after a Russian strike targeted a large hardware store in Kharkiv, Ukraine.
The attack, which occurred on Saturday, also left 11 people missing, all of whom were employees at the shopping center. The strike caused a significant fire, challenging fire crews as they worked to contain the blaze. Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, is frequently targeted by Russian missiles, with a recent attack just days prior resulting in seven deaths.
The city's proximity to the border makes it a regular victim of such assaults.
