The post shared by President of the Liberal Democratic League of Ukraine Arthur Kharytonov reads: “This is Nina. She is a professional pharmacist from Kharkiv.
“Before the Russian bombing attack she served in the “9.1.1.” drugstore.
“Nina agreed to show the face after the meeting with simple Russians.
“To make the world know the truth. She will need a very long treatment.”
Kharkiv alongside Sumy and Chernihiv continue to put up strong resistance against Putin’s forces while harrowing images show the extent of the damage in the cities.
The city’s Mayor Igor Terekhov said hundreds of buildings, many residential, had been destroyed.
“It is impossible to say that the worst days are behind us, we are constantly being bombed,” he said.
A shocking picture showed a Russian missile lodged in the kitchen sink of a family’s home in the besieged city.
The unexploded missile can be seen wedged in the corner of the room and miraculously only caused damage to the house’s ceiling and sink.
