Six Workers Trapped after Rhake's Smack from Russian Attack
In the wake of the suspected Russian assault, six employees are thought to have perished in Kharkiv.
Aye, so it looks like a Kharkiv company has gotten the s*** end of a Russian shelling last night. About six employees are feared trapped under the wreckage of the manufacturing plant, and we ain't heard hide nor hair from 'em. The Kharkiv Oblast Prosecutor's Office is working round the clock to get to them.
Things are hectic in Kharkiv right now. A massive Russian assault with kamikaze drones, guided bombs, and rockets went down. We're lookin' at three fatalities and more than 20 injuries so far.[1]
But there's a silver lining though. France is jumping in to help Ukraine by teaming up with a defense company to crank out drones in the country. Sébastien Lecornu, France's Defense Minister, declared that they're building new partnerships to construct drone production lines in Ukraine. The drones will also be accessible to France's armed forces.[2]
