As Prokudin previously reported, on April 19 at about 18:00 in the Dniprovsky district of Kherson, seven apartments in a high-rise building caught fire due to the impact of eight enemy FPV drones, thus violating the "Easter truce."
At 19:05, a Russian drone hit a civilian car in Urozhayne. An hour later, another drone attacked the village. At 19:12, an enemy FPV drone struck Stanislav.
On April 18, the Russian army shelled residential areas in Kherson region. Three high-rise buildings and five private houses were damaged. The occupiers also destroyed a hangar, agricultural machinery and several private cars. Nine people were wounded in the shelling.
16-year-old Sashko, who was seriously wounded the day before during an air strike on the Central District of Kherson, died in hospital. The boy turned 16 on that tragic day, April 17. As a result of that attack, four people were killed and 25 others were injured, including a child.
In total, from April 16 to 17, Russian troops conducted a series of attacks on peaceful towns and villages in the Kherson region. At least 20 multi-story buildings, 17 private houses, gas pipelines, an outbuilding, an ambulance and civilian vehicles were damaged. One person was killed and 15 others were injured.
Since the beginning of the year, Russia has significantly intensified shelling of the Kherson community, using a wide range of weapons. The consequences of the shelling by the terrorist country are dozens of dead and hundreds of wounded among the civilian population.
