On Ukraine's Constitution Day, June 28, the national flag appeared over the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson region, informs the 34th Separate Coastal Defense Brigade.
"Happy Constitution Day, left-bank Kherson region! Ukraine is united. Sovereign. Unshakable. Our pilots sent greetings to Russian forces and reminded them: this land is Ukrainian. The flag of Ukraine and the flag of our brigade flew over the temporarily occupied territory," the military said.
Footage shows pilots raising two flags — the national flag and the 34th brigade's banner — over a settlement on the left bank of the Kherson region.
Russian attacks on Kherson and the region
Russian forces regularly use drones to attack civilian infrastructure and transport, especially in the frontline areas of Kherson and the region.
The left-bank part of the Kherson region remains under Russian occupation. Meanwhile, the Russian army attacks Kherson and other settlements on the right bank of the Dnipro River almost daily.
Earlier, Russian forces attacked the area on May 23. At that time, 10 civilians were reported injured and three killed.
