In the Kharkiv region, Russian attacks injured a 48-year-old man in Kupiansk, a 43-year-old woman in Solonytsivka, and two women, 52 and 65 years old, in Vilkhuvatka.

Russian forces destroyed or damaged 18 houses and railway infrastructure in the Kharkiv district. The attacks caused a fire in a 2000 square kilometer area near one of the settlements in the district.
