Maria Avdeeva, a misinformation specialist and director at the European Expert Association, shared a tweet that appeared to show Russians indiscriminately shelling residential areas.<ref> https://twitter.com/maria_avdv/status/1498544825062375434</ref> However, the building targeted in the video is a known base for the Ukrainian Azov Battalion. Hromadske, a digital broadcasting station in Ukraine, reported that the group, which began as Sect 82, "occupied the building of the regional administration and acted as a local 'Self-Defense.' Soon, on the basis of the 'Sect,' a 'Schidna Corps' was formed—a volunteer formation that soon entered the structure of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and was supposed to protect Kharkiv in the event of a war on its territory. Interior Minister Arsen Avakov called the corps 'his black hundred in Kharkiv.'"<ref>https://hromadske.ua/posts/my-namahaiemosia-pryity-do-vlady-cherez-vybory-khocha-maiemo-vsiaki-mozhlyvosti-iak-azov-staie-partiieiu</ref>

Azov had reportedly been using the administrative building at the time of the strike, which meant that it was a military target.<ref>https://twitter.com/emeriticus/status/1498700380649238537</ref>
