Vladyslav Voloshyn, a spokesman for the Southern Defense Forces, denied information spread on social media about the alleged landing of enemy subversive reconnaissance groups in Kherson. "The bridge that connects the mainland of the city and the Korabel neighborhood was damaged by the Russians, so it is a logistics issue that is important for the civilian population. It is not important for the defense of the city.

The Department of Civil Defense and Defense Work of the Kherson Regional State Administration bought 5.1 million UAH worth of mesh netting.
