At least 22 settlements in the Kherson region came under Russian fire over the past 24 hours. Four people were wounded in the shelling, dozens of houses, gas pipelines and cars were damaged.

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

During the day from 06:00 on June 26 to 06:00 on June 27, 2025, Russian troops attacked at least 22 settlements in the Kherson region. In particular, Antonivka, Beryslav, Bilozerka, Muzykivka, Kizomys, Stanislav, Kozatske and Kherson came under fire.

The occupiers fired artillery, dropped bombs and launched drones at residential areas and social infrastructure. The attacks damaged 7 apartment buildings and 25 private houses, outbuildings, gas pipelines, garages and cars. Four civilians were injured.

From June 25 to June 26, at least 43 settlements in the region were shelled by drones, artillery and aircraft. The attacks damaged 2 multi-story buildings, 16 private houses, a gas pipeline, a cell tower, warehouses, an outbuilding, a gas station, and several cars.

The Russian strikes killed three people and injured thirteen others. The terror did not stop day or night. On June 26, around 06:30, the Dniprovsky district of Kherson came under fire. A 64-year-old woman sustained an explosive injury, shrapnel wounds to her head and arm. In the morning, artillery fire in the Korabelny district of Kherson damaged residential areas, including an elderly woman in her own home.

The fire destroyed private houses: walls and roofs were damaged, windows were smashed. A resident of Antonivka who was injured on May 18 due to the detonation of enemy explosives was taken to the hospital.

The 59-year-old woman stepped on a Lepestok anti-personnel mine and sustained explosive injuries and amputation of three toes. Also hospitalized was a 71-year-old woman from Bilozerka who came under fire on June 16 and sustained a mine-blast injury, contusion and concussion. A 34-year-old resident of Kherson also needed medical assistance after the occupiers dropped explosives from a drone the day before.

Last year, more than 30,000 civilian objects were damaged or destroyed in the Kherson region as a result of Russian aggression. The bulk of the destruction occurred in the residential sector - about 95% of the damage was done to private homes and apartment buildings: 27,600 private homes and 1,200 apartment buildings were destroyed.
