Kharkiv Television Tower (Ukrainian: Харківська телевізійна вежа), most commonly known as the Kharkiv TV Tower (Ukrainian: Харківська телевежа), is a steel truss television tower for FM-/TV-broadcasting in Kharkiv, Ukraine, which was 240.7-metre-tall (790 ft).[2] It was partially destroyed as a result of a Russian strike during the Russo-Ukrainian War on 22 April 2024 and is planned to be restored only after the end of hostilities.[3]

The tower was of similar design of the Kyiv TV Tower, but its design has legs of a closed metal structure. In addition, the tower was constructed with truss-like space frames, which are lightweight rigid structures constructed from/by interlocking and/or intertwining struts in a geometric pattern.[1] The Kharkiv TV Tower was the tallest building in the city and the fifth tallest TV tower in Ukraine.[4]

2022 airstrike

During the Battle of Kharkiv, as part of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, on 6 March 2022, the tower and the stations administrative building were struck by eight FAB-500 bombs from a Russian Su-34 fighter jet, the station's administrative building and the tower's self-supporting metal structure sustained heavy damage as a result. The fighter jet was shot down by Ukrainian armed forces right after the bombs were dropped. The pilot ejected, landed and was detained by the National Guard of Ukraine. A year later, the Russian pilot who operated the fighter jet was sentenced to 12 years in prison in Ukraine.[5][6][7]

2024 destruction

On 22 April 2024, the upper half of the TV tower was destroyed as a result of a Russian air strike using a Kh-59 cruise missile.[8][9][10] The following day there was no signal of digital terrestrial television in Kharkiv and the nearby settlements.[3] Authorities announced that the restoration of the TV tower will begin only after the end of hostilities.[3]
