KHARKIV, Ukraine (AA) - A hotel where Anadolu reporters covering the war in Ukraine were staying was targeted by missiles late Wednesday.
The attacks were carried out around 11.30 p.m. local time (2130GMT) in the city of Kharkiv near the border with Russia in eastern Ukraine.
Two missiles hit the Park Hotel, where Anadolu correspondents covering the Russia-Ukraine war on the front lines had been staying.
The upper floors of the hotel were destroyed by the impact of the explosions and the building was engulfed in flames.
Anadolu reporter Davit Kachkachishvili and photojournalist Ozge Elif Kizil, who were on duty, managed to escape.
Kachkachishvili suffered minor cuts to his hands.
Kizil and Kachkachishvili, both in good health, were transported to a hospital by ambulance for further checks.
The vehicle used by the team was also damaged in the attack and rendered unusable, like many other vehicles near the hotel.
