According to Terekhov, air raid sirens were activated 2,113 times, totaling 3,764 hours, or 156 days.
“Almost half a year without normal sleep, in constant fear for yourself and your loved ones. The enemy sees no boundaries. Their missiles don’t care if it’s a school or a residential building, a hospital, or a playground. For them, we are all just targets. But Russia does not understand the main thing: our spirit is indestructible! Every alert, every strike only proves that Kharkiv is a hero city that never surrenders,” Terekhov said.
On Dec. 25, Russian-launched attacks on Kharkiv injured six people.
