I receive a lot of kind messages during air raid alerts and I'm very pleased to feel your concern, but let me explain to you what the missile attack on Kharkiv means. Most often, an explosion is heard even before or a few seconds after the air raid alarm. The S-300 missile fired from Belgorod (russia) strikes Kharkiv in 40-60 seconds. People don't have the physical ability to react so quickly (especially considering that the russians launch missile strikes most often at night), get dressed and run for shelter, which is not always around. Only a metro and a bomb shelter can save a life, an ordinary basement can become a grave. Also, because the missile's flight time is so short, the air defense has no way to shoot it down, at least for now. Modern air defense and the elimination of launchers that bring death will be able to protect Kharkiv and its residents. But until this happens, people here continue to live in fear, not knowing what the next air raid signal will bring, today here were 5 such signals…
