Ukraine Reports a Drop in Russian Guided Aerial Bomb Strikes on Kharkiv Region

Russian forces have scaled back their guided bomb attacks on border settlements in Ukraine's northeastern Kharkiv region, according to the local governor. This comes as Russian troops face difficulties countering the reported Ukraine's cross-border incursion in the Kursk region.

During May offensive on the Kharkiv region, Russia incresed its strikes on Ukrainian villages lying on the border using artillery and guided aerial bombs.

"We have been recording a sharp decrease in guided bomb strikes in recent days. If our border area has seen from 30 to 60 guided bomb strikes per day, now no more than 10," said Governor Oleh Syniehubov on national TV.

“We continue to record a decrease in the number of shelling on the territory of Kharkiv region. This is a consequence of the effective work of the Defense Forces. However, there is still a high missile threat throughout the region,” Syniehubov said.
