Over the past 24 hours, Russians shelled more than 40 settlements in Kherson region. The attacks killed three people and damaged homes and cars.

This was reported by the head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration Oleksandr Prokudin.

On July 25-26, Russian troops again terrorized Kherson region. At least 40 settlements came under attack, including Antonivka, Prydniprovske, Kizomys, Sadove, Zelenivka, Chornobaivka, Naddnipryanske, Bilozerka, Stanislav, Shyroka Balka, Sofiyivka, Doslidne and Tomyna Balka.

The shelling targeted residential areas and critical and social infrastructure. The shelling damaged three multi-story buildings and seven private houses, and damaged civilian cars. Three people were killed and eleven others were injured.

The morning of July 25 began with new attacks in Kherson region - the Russians once again terrorized the region with drones and artillery.

Around 5:30 a.m., an enemy drone attacked a car on a highway near Kherson, injuring a 59-year-old man with blast trauma and contusion. Two hours later, at 7:30 a.m., a 60-year-old woman was injured in the Dniprovsky district of Kherson: she was in the street when the attack occurred. The attack resulted in an explosive injury and amputation of her arm.

Russian artillery also struck Tomynaya Balka, damaging a residential building, where a 44-year-old man sustained a chest wound.

The shelling continued. Around 8:30 the enemy shelled Dniprovsky district of Kherson again. A 41-year-old local resident sustained concussion and explosive trauma. Half an hour later, an 88-year-old woman was hit by a drone - she was wounded in her yard. The victim suffered a craniocerebral injury, contusion and blast trauma.

The occupiers also attacked an ambulance crew that tried to save a Kherson woman after she arrived in Novokairakh from the Milivska community. At least eight hits were recorded in the same village, and a local educational institution was damaged. Two people - a 63-year-old woman and a 47-year-old man - were seriously injured.

There were tragic consequences in Kherson as well: a worker of a utility company, born in 1972, was killed when a drone hit a vehicle. And at 9:30 a.m., a drone attacked another utility vehicle: A 32-year-old man had both his legs blown off, and a 50-year-old man had injuries to his legs, torso and arms. Both were taken to the hospital in serious condition.

A few minutes later, at about 9:40, another woman, a 73-year-old woman from Kherson, was hit by an enemy drone near her home. She received multiple shrapnel wounds and an explosive injury.

In total, over the day of July 24-25, Russians attacked at least 39 settlements in Kherson region. A multi-story building and at least six private houses were damaged. At least six civilians were injured.
