KHARKIV (UKRAINE): Still retaliating to drone attacks conducted to destroy bombers, Russia launched 48 drones, two missiles and four gliding bombs Friday (6th June, 2025) to hit Ukraine’s second largest city destroying 13 apartment buildings, 13 houses, other batiments, killing 3 and injuring 21.
A day before too in retaliation to the Kyiv’s recent drone & missile attacks, Russia had pounded Ukraine, killing three people, wounding many others, damaging infrastructure and disrupting utilities. According to sources Russia attacked six regions of Ukraine by means of 450 drones and (cruise, ballistic) missiles.
Kyiv claimed to have shot 230 down. It may be recalled that following the 2nd telephonic contact with Putin Wednesday (4th June, 2025), Trump had revealed that Russia was all set to retaliate to the weekend drone attacks on Russian airfields carried out by Ukraine.
Taking to the Truth Social Trump said: “We discussed the attack on Russia’s docked airplanes, by Ukraine, and also various other attacks that have been taking place by both sides. It was a good conversation, but not a conversation that will lead to immediate Peace...President Putin did say, and very strongly, that he will have to respond to the recent attack.”
Kyiv had claimed that it had struck 34% of Russian Bombers inflicting a financial loss of US $ seven million to Russia. Ukraine’s domestic intelligence agency SBU stated by means of a social Media platform: “We’re doing all we can to drive the enemy from our land! We’ll strike them at sea, in the air and on land. If necessary, we’ll get them from underground”.

It had further been claimed that the attack on airfields in Russia had struck strategic bombers capable of carrying cruise missiles. Above satellite image shows debris of destroyed aircraft.
