Chilling moment Russian airstrike misses Ukrainian woman by inches

THIS is the shocking moment a missile destroys a rubbish bin and narrowly misses a Ukrainian woman walking down the street by inches.

The incident reportedly took place in the city of Kharkiv amid widespread reports from Ukrainian officials that cities across the country were hit by missiles last night.


Miraculously, in the video, the woman can be seen getting up and walking away, while two other people can also be seen in the background narrowly avoiding being hit by the explosion reportedly caused by Russian ordnance.

The images obtained from the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence were shared with the caption: "Kharkiv. Two months ago, no one in Ukraine could have imagined something like this.

"Now it is becoming commonplace for many Ukrainians."

They were also shared by the Ukrainian Armed Forces who said that the images showed a "strike on a strategic military trash can".
