The number of people injured in a rocket attack in Kharkiv has risen to eight, including an eight-month-old child.

This was confirmed by the Kharkiv region's police communication department on Facebook.

The attack, which occurred on the morning of August 6, targeted a densely built area in the central part of the city, likely using an Iskander missile complex.

The victims of the attack include six women, a man, and an eight-month-old baby.

The police report that several buildings, a polyclinic, the facades and windows of residential buildings, and at least 25 civilian cars were damaged in the attack.

Kharkiv, a major city in northeastern Ukraine, has been a frequent target of missile strikes since the beginning of the conflict.
