Kharkiv rescuers save wounded dog after Russian strike - video
Ukrainian emergency workers rescued a dog injured in a brutal Russian attack on Kharkiv, State Emergency Service (SES) reported on Telegram on June 11.
“Amid the ruins, pain, and anxiety of war, there are those who cannot speak their suffering,” officials wrote.
“In Kharkiv, rescuers and medics helped a little dog injured in the Russian strike — shrapnel had wounded his eye.”
Frightened but trusting, the dog allowed rescuers to approach. He received medical assistance and was placed in safe hands.
“This is one more life saved," SES added.
"Because anyone who suffers deserves help — even if they have four legs and a tail.”
On the night of June 11, Russian forces launched 17 Shahed attack drones on two districts of Kharkiv — Slobidskyi and Osnovianskyi.
The strikes directly hit residential high-rises, private homes, playgrounds, businesses, and public transportation infrastructure. Videos show burning apartments, destroyed rooftops, charred vehicles, and shattered windows.
Preliminary reports confirmed two people killed and 54 injured, including five children. Several residents were rescued from burning buildings.
The attack also damaged trolleybuses, power lines, municipal utilities, and industrial sites.
Utility and emergency services are working to clear debris, assist victims, and restore gas, electricity, and water.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
