Russians attacked the village of Hroza in Kupiansk district, Kharkiv region: almost 50 people were killed

This was announced by Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

A grocery store and a cafe came under attack. As of now, 48 people have been reported dead, including a six-year-old boy. 

Six more people, including one child, were injured. Medical personnel are providing them with the necessary assistance. Rescue operations at the site are ongoing.

"Russian terror must be stopped. Anyone who helps Russia circumvent sanctions is a criminal. Everyone who still supports Russia is supporting evil. Russia needs this and similar terrorist attacks for only one thing: to make its genocidal aggression a new norm for the whole world," the President commented on the actions of Russian troops.

UPD: Law enforcers have already identified 29 people killed in the village Hroza 

This was reported by the Minister of Internal Affairs, Ihor Klymenko.

A mobile forensic laboratory is operating at the site.

There may still be people under the ruins of the destroyed shop and cafe, so rescuers, police and local residents continue to clear the rubble. 

At the time of the rocket attack, the cafe held a wake for a deceased villager.
