On the night of 6 February, Russian forces conducted two missile strikes on the small town of Zolochiv in Kharkiv Oblast, targeting a hotel, the Prosecutor Office of Kharkiv Oblast reported.

The attack led to the complete destruction of the hotel, resulting in the tragic death of a two-month-old baby boy, who was born on 4 December.

His 21-year-old mother sustained injuries, and two other women were also wounded.
