Spliced video segments that appear to show the same Russian patrol operating in Kharkiv apparently document the invading troops coming under direct automatic small arms fire.
The truck gunners immediately return fire as the dismounts scramble for cover. Kharkiv, Ukraine's second largest city is reportedly still under Ukrainian control after multiple assaults by Russian troops. Russia has bombed the local pipeline, which resulted in massive burning and thick smoke.
Kharkiv is a strategic city, and a primary target for the Russian troops invading from Belgorod. Although the Ukrainians have fought hard and inflicted significant casualties on the invaders, the Russians are likely to envelope the city, cutting off the defenders if they do not receive outside intervention.
