“What should I think? I live in this house. I have no apartment; everything is burning. In 2022, my windows and balcony were blown out. On March 7, a plane dropped a bomb on Krasnodarska Street. On April 11, the windows on this side were also blown out. I invested so much money. Now, I have no apartment; I have nowhere to live. I work as a train conductor for Ukrzaliznytsia, on trains No. 17 and No. 15. Where should I live with my wife, two daughters, and grandchildren? I don’t understand at all; I have nowhere to live at the moment. Everything is burned, everything is on fire, everything is destroyed. Now, I am as I am. I have nothing left. Everything is burned. Everything. What can I say? I am in shock. I never thought it would hit here, this area, and my home.”

STORYLINE:
At least 41 people were wounded Sunday afternoon when a Russian aerial bomb struck a multi-story residential building in Kharkiv, Mayor Ihor Terekhov said, adding that the guided bomb hit the 10th floor of the building, with the fire spreading across four stories.
Twelve other buildings were also damaged, he said.
Residents looked on as firefighters tackled a blaze high up in the multi-storey building.
One affected resident, Viktor, said: " I have no apartment; everything is burning."
He continued: "Everything is burned, everything is on fire, everything is destroyed. Now, I am as I am. I have nothing left."
Another resident, Tetana, recounted the moment the strike hit.
“I was shocked. I got up, got dressed. People started screaming, and I went outside," she said.
Meanwhile, two people died in a missile attack on the Ukrainian Black Sea port city of Odesa, local officials said, as Moscow and Kyiv exchanged drone and missile attacks.
The Ukrainian air force said Sunday it shot down 10 of the 14 drones and one of the three missiles Russia launched overnight.
