Russian shelling of the Kherson region

Russian troops are constantly shelling Kherson and the region. The situation with the attacks on the right bank by the invaders is so serious that it is under the control of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

In particular, on January 4, Russian troops fired on the village of Stanislav in the Kherson region. The attack caused a power outage in the village. Two people were injured and one man was killed. In addition, on this day, the Russians attacked Novotyahyntsi. A 52-year-old woman was wounded in the shelling. She was taken to the hospital.
