A Russian drone strike on Kharkiv injured five people and caused a fire in the Osnovyanskyi district early on October 31. The attack hit a private house, damaging about ten other homes, outbuildings, and a car. The State Emergency Service reported the drone hit a residential building, igniting its roof and nearby structures across 300 square meters.
