According to the press service of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, on the night of May 31, 2024, the enemy launched a new attack on Kharkiv with five S-300/S-400 anti-aircraft guided missiles from the Belgorod region in Russia.

In addition, it is emphasised that the Russians tried to hit the Ukrainian capital with an "Iskander-K" cruise missile from the Kursk region of the Russian Federation.

Four strike UAVs of the "Shahed-131/136" type were also launched from the Yeysk region, which is located in the aggressor country.

The occupiers also attacked Kharkiv with S-300 missiles. There, a five-story building was destroyed, other houses and an enterprise were damaged.
