Moment a Russian rocket narrowly misses Ukrainian woman carrying her shopping as it explodes just yards away from her in Kharkiv (Video)

The incident allegedly took place in Kharkiv, a city in northeast Ukraine, amid widespread reports from Ukrainian officials that cities across the country were hit by missiles on Sunday night.

Although the missile explodes just yards away from her near a bin, the woman eventually gets back up and walks away from the scene.

Two other people can also be seen in the background and avoid being hit by the explosion, which was reportedly caused by Russian ordnance. The Ukrainian authorities have confirmed that no one was killed in the footage.

Fighting in Ukraine has shifted to the east of the country and there have been reports of civilian fatalities overnight due to Russian missile strikes.
