Kherson has been partially left without power as a result of the attack. Specialists are assessing the extent of the damage and the scope of restoration work, the head of the Regional Military Administration, Yaroslav Shanko, reported.
Overall, over the past day Russia carried out seven strikes on the Kherson community. Kherson, Antonivka, Inzhenerne, Sadove, Komyshany, Zymivnyk, and Zelenivka came under Russian air attacks, artillery fire, and drone terror.
“In particular, private homes and apartment buildings, a medical facility, civilian vehicles, and non-residential structures were damaged,” he said.
Five people were wounded.
Over the past day, there was a recorded threat of the use of tactical aircraft and long-range strike UAVs of the Shahed/Herbera type. Russian aircraft struck the Dniprovsky district of Kherson, and enemy UAVs attacked critical infrastructure facilities in the Central and Korabelnyi districts of Kherson.
The most dangerous locations by the number of recorded reports:
- the village of Antonivka (together with the eastern part)
- the Shumenskyi neighborhood
- seaport/river port
- Zabalka
- the Tavriiskyi neighborhood
- “Europort”
- the “Korabel” neighborhood
- “Palada”
- Zhytloselyshche
- Voienka
- Kherson State University
- Slava Park
- Kovsh
- backwaters
- Svobody Square
“According to the Defense Forces, the occupiers are intensifying ‘free hunting’ for vehicles using fiber-optic-controlled drones, in particular targeting cars that by their outward signs can be identified as Defense Forces transport. The risks of strikes are increasing near places where cars congregate—by supermarkets, markets, and gas stations,” Yaroslav Shanko reported.
