Russian forces launched a powerful artillery strike on the peaceful city of Berislav in the Kherson region, resulting in tragic consequences for local residents
According to official data received from regional authorities, the strike occurred in the heart of the regional center on May 22 around 13:40. As a result of this large-scale shelling, two civilians— a man and a woman— were killed; they were incidental witnesses to the war in their hometown. According to Oleksandr Prokudin, head of the Kherson Regional State Administration, Russian troops used artillery against the residential area of Berislav, which became a tragedy for the families who lost their loved ones. "This enemy shelling claimed the lives of a 54-year-old woman and a 64-year-old man," the official commented, emphasizing the brutality and senselessness of the events. It is believed that this was a planned attack aimed at destabilizing peaceful life and intimidating the local population. The circumstances of the incident are currently being clarified by law enforcement and military agencies. The victims are local residents who found themselves innocent victims of Russian aggression, which has been destroying the lives of many people in the region for a long time. The consequences of this strike once again highlight the critical situation in the occupied Kherson region, where the words "security" and "peace" are becoming just distant dreams for the local residents with each passing day. This tragic incident confirms that war brings numerous human losses, destroys homes, devastates lives, and leaves an indelible mark on the hearts of those who have lost loved ones. Law enforcement and volunteers are currently working on documenting the aftermath of the attack, while local authorities call on residents to exercise caution and follow safety measures. In these difficult times for Berislav and the entire region, it is important to maintain unity and support each other in the fight for survival and peace on their land.
