A young woman narrowly escaped death when a Russian-fired rocket exploded just meters away from her.
The chilling moment was captured on surveillance footage and shared on X.
Yesterday, Kharkiv was the scene of a devastating rocket attack that claimed three lives and injured 55 others.
The video shows a woman walking along the sidewalk when the sudden roar of an incoming rocket pierces the air. In a split second, she attempts to shield her head before a powerful explosion sends debris flying all around.
Dazed by the blast, the woman can be seen scrambling for safety.
The footage also reveals other survivors, including a family clutching a small child. The terror and chaos of the moment are palpable, underscoring the indiscriminate nature of such attacks.
