At least 1 person was killed and 10 were injured after a postal service office was shelled in Kharkiv on Sunday, June 30, Ukrainian authorities said.

“All shift workers were in the bomb storage and were not injured. But there are victims among the population, as well as truck drivers,” postal service Nova Poshta said in a Facebook statement.

An 8-month-old baby and a 16-year-old boy were among those injured, alongside a 58-year-old man said to be in critical condition, according to the head of Kharkiv’s regional administration, Oleg Synegubov.

The attack started a 200-square-meter blaze, which consumed a number of shipping trucks and damaged several production and warehouse buildings at the Slobid district site, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine said.
