Russia-Ukraine war: List of key events, day 816
At least 11 people were killed and dozens injured after Russia bombed a busy lakeside resort on the edge of Ukraine's second-largest city of Kharkiv and attacked villages in the surrounding area. At least 13 people were injured after the Ukrainian military shelled areas of Russia's southern Belgorod region, according to Belgorod's regional Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said Russian attacks in the Kharkiv area "slowed down a bit" but that forces "continue their attempts to break through our defences near Vovchansk, Starytsya and Lyptsi". Russia's Ministry of Defence, which claimed earlier to have seized Starytsya, said its units "continued to advance into the depth of the enemy's defences". Officials said Russia shot down at least 103 Ukrainian drones, including 62 over Russian regions, as well as missiles that targeted Crimea, which Moscow seized and annexed from Ukraine in 2014.
