Drone attack on Kharkiw: Two dead and numerous injuries!

In the night of June 11, 2025, the Ukrainian city of Charkiw was again the goal of a Russian drone attack. According to reports from zvw.de , at least two people were killed and dozens were violated, including five children. Mayor Ihor Terechow reported considerable damage to residential buildings and a major fire that was triggered by the attack. Company buildings were also affected by the explosions.

This attack is particularly worrying, since a few days ago the most violent attack on Kharkiw has been taking place since the beginning of the conflict, in which numerous people were killed and injured. Charkiw, located near the border with Russia, is often the goal of Russian aggression, which has been going on for more than three years now.

increasing drone operations and international reactions

The situation in Ukraine continues to escalate because President Wolodymyr Selenskyj has called for a reduction in the price limit for Russian oil to $ 30 per barrel in order to increase the pressure on Russia and to promote its willingness to negotiate peace negotiations. The price limit is currently $ 60; Selenskyj's proposal runs through the discussions in which the EU Commission also advocates a reduction to $ 45, such as mdr.de reported.

During the most difficult attack on Kyiv Since the beginning of the conflict, the significant Sophienkathedral has also been damaged. Chancellor Friedrich Merz condemned the Russian attacks as "the most severe war crimes" and described them as targeted terror against the civilian population. There were many injuries and at least two fatalities in Odessa.

diplomatic efforts and future conversations

The international efforts to end the conflict continues in parallel to the military escalations. Russia and Ukraine had recently negotiated directly in three years without reaching a ceasefire. An exchange of 1,000 prisoners of war was agreed, while the talks are to be continued at a later date. The pressure on Russia, progress is increasing, and the United States threatens new sanctions, this should not happen.
