In Kherson region, the enemy shelled nineteen settlements. The attack damaged infrastructure and wounded fifteen residents of the region.

This was reported by the press service of the Kherson Regional Military Administration.

Over the past 24 hours, Beryslav, Poniativka, Stanislav, Tyahynka, Odradokamyanka, Antonivka, Vesele, Kozatske, Milove, Kachkarivka, Komyshany, Sadove, Tomina Balka, Novovorontsovka, Tomaryne, Bilozerka, Zelenivka, Inzhenerne and Kherson came under shelling and air strikes.

The Russian military shelled a utility company and a local fire department, damaging residential areas in the region's settlements, including a multi-story building and seven private houses. In addition, an outbuilding, a garage, an ambulance, and private cars were destroyed.

As a result of Russian aggression, 15 people were injured.

On November 11, during the shelling of the region, the Russian military hit an educational and medical institution and a cultural institution; residential areas of the region's settlements, in particular, they damaged a multi-story building and eight private houses. The occupiers also damaged a garage and private cars. Two civilians were killed and one was injured as a result of Russian aggression.

On November 8, the Russians once again attacked the civilian infrastructure of Beryslav and Kherson districts, using artillery, mortars, aircraft and UAVs. Damage was done to 15 private and seven apartment buildings, a penitentiary building, an educational institution, three cars, a shop, and a cemetery. The Russian military launched six guided bombs from the air at the settlements of the Novooleksandrivska community.

Earlier, seventeen settlements came under fire. In total, 37 objects were damaged, including 19 private houses, 8 apartment buildings, a lyceum, an administrative building, a university, 3 civilian cars and an ambulance, as well as gas pipelines and a garage. In Zelenivka , artillery strikes on residential buildings resulted in the injury of a 53-year-old woman and a 54-year-old man, who were diagnosed with explosive injuries and contusions.

The occupiers have begun to actively use thermobaric munitions on attack drones , which significantly increase the threat when striking buildings. Unlike two-stage munitions, where the explosion was carried out in stages, this single-stage thermobaric charge immediately activates a "fire cloud" with a temperature of about 2400-2600 °C.

After initiation, the shock wave instantly creates a movement of the thermobaric mixture, which comes into contact with the air, forming a strong explosion that spreads to neighboring rooms. In enclosed spaces, such a "cloud" can simultaneously cover several rooms, causing severe damage to the lungs and hearing organs.
