At least 22 people, including two children, were wounded in Russian attacks on Ukraine's Kharkiv on Monday morning (October 12), Regional Governor Oleh Syniehubov said on Telegram.

Reuters footage showed rescuers climbing a ladder to a residential building and extinguishing a fire inside, while first responders helped elderly people walk to ambulances.

Multiple air raid alerts sounded during the emergency response, prompting residents of both buildings to head to shelters.

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Monday accused Russia of violating the energy ceasefire announced by Donald Trump after a strike on a thermal power plant in the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv, and urged the United States to ensure Moscow sticks to any agreement.

The Kremlin said on Monday that contacts were ongoing about a possible energy ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, which was announced by US president Donald Trump.
