"A World Central Kitchen partner restaurant in Kharkiv was demolished by a missile strike that killed at least two people and wounded about 18 others, with several staff injured; WCK leadership described the attack as senseless brutality and shared images of injured employees in the hospital who were reported to be recovering in good spirits. The site had been part of WCK’s frontline feeding operation—serving hot meals to people fleeing and remaining in the region—and is tied to an effort that has provided some 11 million meals in Ukraine, including tens of thousands daily in Kharkiv to bomb shelters, hospitals, churches, seniors, and people trapped on the front lines. In the immediate aftermath the team moved non-damaged food and equipment to another kitchen location, and leadership and staff stated they are ready and willing to resume cooking from a new site." - Jaya Saxena
