Russian attack on Ukraine's Kharkiv damages hospital, cuts power to 30,000, officials say

Russian forces attacked Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, with guided bombs on Monday, October 13, damaging a hospital and knocking out power to 30,000 customers in three districts, local officials said.

Mayor Ihor Terekhov said the three bombs damaged a hospital and hit power transmission lines. Nearly 30,000 customers had been hit by power cuts. He said four people had been injured, most by flying glass, with some patients being transferred to different wards.

In recent weeks, Russian forces have concentrated their attacks on targets associated with Ukraine's electricity grid and gas industry as winter approaches in the more than 3-1/2-year-old war.
