A 58-year-old man sustained mine-blast trauma, as well as shrapnel wounds to his back and head. He is currently under medical supervision. On the night of February 20, a powerful explosion shook Kherson - a Russian guided aerial bomb hit a ten-story building. The strike completely destroyed 15 apartments in the building - from the first to the tenth floor. Windows in another 80 apartments were smashed.
