Ukraine’s Kharkiv under relentless Russian bombardment

Al Jazeera  

For weeks, Ukraine’s second-largest city, near the border with Russia, has been under a constant artillery barrage. Kharkiv, Ukraine – Ukraine’s second-largest city of Kharkiv has witnessed relentless bombardment by Russian forces since the start of the war nearly a month ago. “The centre of the city is frozen like a page in history, standing still for the world to see,” Al Jazeera’s Assed Baig, reporting from Kharkiv, describing it as one ridden with “apocalyptic scenes” of bombed-out buildings with windows gutted out and rubble strewn across the desolate streets. “There’s no place they can come back to.” At least 500 buildings – including hospitals and schools – have been destroyed, Kharkiv’s mayor said. Volunteers bring it to us.” Al Jazeera’s Baig said that despite Kharkiv’s “historical heart being ripped out”, there was still hope among those who have stayed behind for an end to the war.
