• Russian occupiers captured Kherson and almost the entire Kherson region at the beginning of a full-scale invasion. In November 2022, the defense forces of Ukraine liberated the right-bank part of the Kherson region, together with the regional center, from the Russian occupiers. After that, the Russians began systematically shelling Kherson and other liberated settlements in the region.
