Russia may have used a new type of guided bomb in airstrikes on the north eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv that killed at least one person, local officials said.

The officials said four children, including a three-month-old baby were among 19 people wounded in Kharkiv in the latest strikes since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, some of which have caused blackouts, including in Kharkiv.

Regional governor Oleh Synehubov also suggested Moscow may have used a new type of bomb, saying:"It seems that the Russians decided to test their modified bombs on the residents of the houses."It denies targeting civilians although the war has killed thousands of people, uprooted millions and destroyed towns and cities.

Prosecutors in Kharkiv region reported that a 12-year-old boy was killed when Russian forces shelled the town of Borova, southeast of Kharkiv.
