This was reported by the Kherson regional military administration via their official Telegram channel, emphasizing that shelling and attacks have continued since early hours and have caused a significant number of injuries among local residents. According to the regional administration, the first wave of violence began around 8 a.m., when an attack carried out by a drone (UAV) by Russian forces affected residents of Komszany. Specifically, it is known that a 52-year-old man and a 49-year-old woman sustained blast injuries and concussions. They were promptly transported to medical facilities. Their current condition is being clarified, but their wounds are serious. This is the third attack in this microdistrict over the past few weeks, confirming the systematic nature of the shelling and increasing tension in the maritime sector. A few hours later, around 11:00 a.m., the situation worsened with an artillery attack on Osokorivka. As a result of this strike, a 26-year-old resident was wounded while he was outside. He was injured by shrapnel and blast trauma to his leg — the man was urgently hospitalized at the nearest hospital. It is known that after the shelling, he sustained serious injuries requiring long-term treatment and rehabilitation, but his life is not in danger. Enemy drones continue to operate: already by midday, Russian forces carried out an attack on central Kherson. According to preliminary information, a 68-year-old woman was injured in the city by shrapnel and an explosion trauma to her leg following a drone attack and blasts. The victim was quickly taken to a hospital, where she is receiving necessary medical assistance. Civilians are increasingly facing dangers caused by constant missile and drone attacks by the enemy, which destroy infrastructure and create a crisis situation in the region. Local authorities are urging residents to stay calm and follow safety rules amid ongoing shelling. Witnesses report that the situation remains tense, and each day brings new challenges. Residents continue to stay in shelters, awaiting the end of the war or a reduction in the scale of attacks. The rate of destruction and the number of injured testify to the desperate fight of residents for their lives and peace in this part of Ukraine.
