Explosion in Kharkiv amid a massive blast

Ukrainian authorities say Russian missile attacks have hit the center of Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, including residential areas and the regional administration building.

Kharkiv's regional chief said Russia launched Grad rockets and cruise missiles on the city on March 1.

Despite overwhelming evidence of an indiscriminate bombardment of the city, Russia continues to deny its military is hitting civilian targets.
