Kharkiv Shelled

Thursday early afternoon I heard artillery explosions in Kharkiv. I couldn't tell where it came from, but later that afternoon I made the acquaintance of several foreign journalists. I traveled with them to the site where there 3 shells landed. Several small businesses were destroyed, across the street in parking lot cars were destroyed and nearby an apartment building suffered damage. It was unclear if there were fatalities or injuries at this location, but other parts of the city, 9 people were killed from the shelling that day.

Later that night I heard shelling again. Around midnight, I looked out the window of my room. Due to the curfew and blackout and the city being nearly depopulated there were only a handful of lights visible despite that I was in the very center (and on an upper floor) in a large city.
