Russian strikes killed at least six people in the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv, local officials said on Friday. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia had dropped a guided bomb on the city and reiterated his call for Western allies to allow long-range attacks on Russian military air bases. Later Friday, Ukrainian strikes on Russia's Belgorod border region killed at least five and wounded 37, the region's governor said.

A Russian guided bomb attack on Ukraine's northeastern city of Kharkiv hit a residential building and a playground, killing six people and injuring at least 55 more, local authorities said.
