Airwars assessment

A suspected Russian attack reportedly killed three civilians in Balakleya, Kharkiv the afternoon of April 6, 2022.

The Ukrainian Helsinki Human Rights Group detailed how Russian troops shelled residential buildings, resulting in destroyed homes, and killing three civilians. NV News reported that a criminal case was opened for violation of laws and customs combined with premeditated murder (Part 2 of Article 438 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).

Gordon news quoted the head of the Kharkiv regional military administration Oleg Sinegubov as saying, “As a result of yesterday’s artillery shelling in Balakleya killed three people, many houses destroyed.” he also noted that it is believed that Russia launched 48 strikes against the region.

Two sources challenged these reports. Economy Today claimed that Ukrainian forces shelled Izyum, and Russian forces helped to evacuate patients with chronic diseases and others in need of special assistance. Kharkov Nash, a Ukrainian Telegram channel based in Kharkiv with local correspondents in the city, used the social media platform to accuse Ukrainian forces of killing their own civilians due to “firing indiscriminately” and that Russian soldiers located in Balakleya are continuously shelled by Ukrainian forces, and the Russian troops “can do almost nothing” to repel the Ukrainians.

This incident has reference to ACLED’s code UKR55200.

The incident occured in the afternoon.

Airwars assessment

Between two to three civilians were reportedly killed and at least five others, including three rescuers, were injured by alleged Russian shelling of a market on Heroiv Pratsi St in Kharkiv on March 16, 2022.

Suspilne News reported that three people were killed and five people were injured when a fire caused by Russian shelling broke out in the Heroiv Pratsi metro area.

The State Emergency Service of Ukraine (DSNS) released a statement that “At 4:20 p.m., the fire on the territory of the market was extinguished on an area of 3,600 square meters. As a result of the shelling, 3 people died and 5 people were injured.” DSNS added that 51 people and nine pieces of equipment were involved in putting out the fire.

Wikipedia News reported that two people were killed and five others were wounded from the shelling of the market.

According to @ICTV_Fakty, in addition to the three killed and five wounded, three rescuers were hospitalized.

The department of administrative services of the Kharkiv City Council was quoted as saying that three projectiles hit the area of Heroiv Pratsi market, causing the pavilions to catch fire. Wikipedia News added that the shelling also caused damage to windows in residential buildings and schools.

The majority of sources attributed the shelling of the market to Russian forces. However, Perviy Kharkovskyi, a Telegram account with a clear pro-Russian stance, blamed Ukrainian forces for starting the fire, stating that “people were standing at the “new post office,” section 6, and could see perfectly well who was shooting” (referring to the Ukrainians).

This assessment has reference to ACLED code UKR53554 and Bellingcat code CIV0405.
