One dead and nine injured in bomb attack on post office in Ukraine

One person was killed and nine others, including an eight-month-old baby, were injured in an attack on a post office in Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, on Sunday, local authorities said.

The head of the Kharkiv regional administration, Oleg Synegubov, said a postal worker had been killed.

The city of Kharkiv is a regular target of Russian troops, which launched a major ground offensive in the region on May 10.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said the offensive in northeastern Ukraine was aimed at creating a “buffer zone” to protect the Belgorod region bordering Russia from attacks.

On Saturday, seven people were killed and nearly 40 injured in a Russian attack on Vilnius near the regional metropolis of Zaporizhia.
