Kharkiv

Kharkiv is a city of about 1.5 million people- or it was before Russia attacked. I heard various estimates as to the number of people currently living there, but 20% is the most common number. Immediately after arriving at the train station, I took a cab around the city to see the destruction. The photos are of the northern Saltivka area, I could not get further north or east without permission. Some of the streets returning to Kharkiv city center were carefully controlled by the police.
