Belgorod: Russians Are Preparing to Attack Kharkiv

This is the Russian city of Belgorod last night:

Belgorod is located right across the border from Kharkiv, the city where I’m from. Kharkiv is the second-largest city in Ukraine, the second capital of the country, and an important historic center of Ukrainian culture. Yes, eventually, the Russians will be defeated and will crawl back home. But before that happens, they are very likely to destroy this beautiful historic city and its extraordinary architecture. In this war, the Russians are using the scorched-earth strategy: they wipe out even the tiniest, completely peaceful villages just because they can.
