STORYLINE:
Two people were killed after Russian airstrikes hit Kharkiv on Friday as Ukrainian troops fought to halt Russian advances in the region.

The airstrikes targeted Ukraine’s second-largest city during the daytime, injuring 25 people and killing two, according to Kharkiv’s mayor Ihor Terkhov.

On Thursday, the air alarm sounded for more than 16 hours, a record since the beginning of the military campaign by Russia.

Kharkiv is under airstrikes almost daily as intense battles continue in the region.
