Russian Forces Withdraw From Towns Around Kharkiv Russian forces have retreated from many areas around Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second largest city, which was heavily attacked during the first days of war. Residents are returning to their neighborhoods to assess the damage of the war after being sheltering in metro stations. Many houses and large apartment buildings in the city are destroyed, leaving thousands homeless. Despite the Russian retreat, some units have dug in north of the city and continue to trade shellfire with Ukrainian soldiers. |14-25 May, 2022 | #GettyImages #GettyImagesNews #Photoshournalism #Ukraine #Kharkiv 📸🎥: John Moore jbmoorephoto 🎵: ‘Remove The Complexities’ by Peter Sandberg / epidemicsound 💻: Luciana Ghilino
