KHARKIV, UKRAINE - SEPT. 16, 2025 - RESTRICTION: USERS MUST CREDIT "UKRAINIAN PRESIDENT VOLODYMYR ZELENSKYY'S SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNT" HANDOUT, MUST NOT OBSCURE LOGO — EDITORIAL USE ONLY — A Russian UAV strike hit a building in the Slobidskyi district of Kharkiv on Tuesday, Sept. 16, causing damage in the area, according to the Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor's Office.

The moment of the strike and its aftermath were recorded on video and shared by officials.

Emergency services in Ukraine are currently evaluating the full scale of the damage and searching for any possible casualties.

According to Ukrainian authorities, Russia continues to target civilian infrastructure using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), with Kharkiv remaining one of the most frequently attacked areas in the country.

Officials have urged residents to stay alert and follow air raid warnings, as the threat of additional drone attacks continues.

Russia started its "special military operation" in Ukraine in February 2022 to "denazify" and "demilitarize" Ukraine.

According to its memorandum for the settlement of the conflict, Moscow has demanded a ban on Kyiv joining military alliances and withdrawal of Ukraine's troops from Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson, the regions it annexed after a referendum in September 2022, among others.

Ukraine has called the terms an "ultimatum" and has called for a ceasefire as a prerequisite for meaningful talks.
