Russia may have used a new type of guided bomb in deadly airstrikes on the city of Kharkiv, local officials said.
The attack in northeastern Ukraine killed one person and injured 19 others, among them three children and a baby, officials said.
Volodymyr Tymoshko, head of Kharkiv regional police, said Moscow may have used a new type of bomb named UMPB D-30.
“This is something between a guided aerial bomb which they have used recently and a missile. It’s a flying bomb so to say,” Mr Tymoshko said at the site of the strike.
Regional governor Oleh Synehubov said: “It seems that the Russians decided to test their modified bombs on the residents of the houses.”
Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the attack as “Russian terror”.
Russia did not immediately comment on the remarks.
