Russian forces shelled Kharkiv and 13 settlements across the surrounding region over the past day, killing five people and injuring 49 others, according to Ukrinform.
The attacks struck both the regional capital and a number of settlements in the wider Kharkiv region, Ukrainian officials reported, without immediately detailing the specific areas hit or the types of weapons used.
Kharkiv region, in Ukraine's northeast near the Russian border, has repeatedly come under Russian shelling and missile strikes since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion in 2022.
Ukrainian authorities have not yet given further details on the condition of those injured or on damage caused to residential and civilian infrastructure in the affected areas.
The reported toll adds to a continuing pattern of civilian casualties in the region, which remains among the most frequently targeted areas of Ukraine due to its proximity to the front line and the Russian border.
