Russia strikes Kharkiv Oblast farm with Banderol missiles, killing six
Russian forces struck a vegetable storage facility in Stara Hnylytsia, Kharkiv Oblast, with three Banderol missiles on the morning of Sept. 24, killing six people and injuring 12, local officials reported.
The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) has rejected Russian claims that approximately 1,500 Ukrainian troops were encircled in Kharkiv Oblast between the Velykyi Burluk and Vovchansk sectors on September 24. Russia's Defense Ministry and military bloggers have been making unsubstantiated claims about Ukrainian troops being encircled in several areas of the front.
ISW suggests that this could be part of a Kremlin information campaign aiming to create the impression that Ukrainian defenses are collapsing. The claims of encirclements in northern Kharkiv Oblast and near Dobropillia have not been supported by ISW, and Ukrainian forces continue to deny these allegations.
