Tetiana, 82, an evacuee from the village of Bilyi Kolodiaz of Vovchansk district, waits after arriving at an evacuation point in Kharkiv, on May 11, 2024, amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Ukraine's defense ministry said on May 10, 2024, that Russia had launched a surprise attack on the Kharkiv region, making small advances into a border zone from where it had been pushed back nearly two years ago. "Fighting for villages... continues in the border area," Ukrainian military spokesman Nazar Voloshyn said on national television on Saturday. There was "heavy fighting" in the border area and 1,775 people have been evacuated, Kharkiv regional governor Oleg Synegubov wrote on social media. (Photo by Roman PILIPEY / AFP)
