Russian troops fired at a public transport stop in Kherson, as a result of which five people died.
The head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration Oleksandr Prokudin informed about this on the air of the telethon.
"Tragic day for Kherson. Today at noon, the Russian military fired on the center of Kherson from the "Grad" salvo rocket systems. Their targets are civilians and civilian infrastructure," Prokudin noted.
According to him, residential buildings, critical infrastructure facilities, a kindergarten and private garages in Suvorovskyi and Korabelnyi districts came under fire.
Previously, the Operational Command "South" informed about six dead and 12 wounded.
President Volodymyr Zelensky reacted to another shelling of Kherson: "My condolences to all those who lost their relatives. The world cannot forget for a moment that Russian cruelty and aggression have no limits. The terrorist state will be responsible for all its inhumane crimes against our people and Ukraine."
- The Ukrainian military de-occupied the right-bank part of the Kherson region during the summer and autumn of 2022. The regional center was released on November 11, 2022. Almost immediately after that, Russian troops began shelling Kherson and the regions of the region under the control of the Ukrainian government.
