UKRAINE, KHARKIV OBLAST, Oct. 31 — On Oct. 31, rescuers evacuated a woman with a seven-year-old child from Velykyi Burluk settlement in the Kupianskyi district, said the State Emergency Service of Kharkiv region.

Rescuers noted that they transported the mother and child in an armored vehicle. Then they took the family to an evacuation point.
