missile whooshes the russian missile smashed right into the heart of chernihiv.holiday weekend and the streets were crowded. seven people were killed that day, including a child, and dozens were injured. but the missile exploded just metres away from here... ..its shards slicing into buildings and people all around. when russian troops invaded ukraine in 2022, they never took chernihiv — but they did occupy much of this northern region. the ruins are a reminder of the weeks when the city was under siege and under constant fire. the russians were eventually forced to retreat, and life slowly returned to the streets. then, last august, the city theatre hosted a drone exhibition... ..and russia attacked. when you look at the destruction here, the damage to this theatre, it really drives home, yet again, just how dangerous life is in ukraine. and the fact that whatever russia is aiming at, when it fires its missiles at city centres like this, so often it is civilians and children who are injured and killed. 500km east is kharkiv, very close to the russian border. in
