The Russian army attacked the Kherson region with drones, artillery and aircraft. Dozens of settlements, including the suburbs of Kherson, were hit. The shelling damaged residential buildings, a cell tower and a car. One person was killed and three were wounded in the shelling.

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

From May 10 to 11, Russian troops did not stop shelling the Kherson region. Dozens of settlements, including the suburbs of Kherson and communities along the Dnipro River, came under artillery, drone and air strikes.

The occupiers shelled residential areas and social infrastructure. At least two private houses, a cell tower and a local resident's car were damaged.

One person was killed and three others were wounded in the attacks.

On the night of May 9-10, at least 17 settlements in the Kherson region came under enemy fire. The attacks damaged at least four private houses and one car. Two people were injured over the course of the day, and on the morning of May 10, a man died in Kherson when a Russian drone hit the Dniprovsky district.

The day before, shelling destroyed private cars in several villages and damaged three buildings, including one apartment building. The shelling by Russian troops killed one person and injured another. On May 7-8, at least three multi-story buildings and six private homes were destroyed and civilians' cars damaged as a result of the terrorist country's aggression. In total, one person has been killed and seven injured in recent days as a result of shelling.

A separate problem remains the situation with the Kherson seaport: the enterprise, which was concessioned in December 2021, was virtually destroyed after the occupation and shelling: equipment, buildings, ships and other property were lost. Despite numerous appeals, the state has not yet agreed on a plan to restore the port with the concessionaire.
