On April 8-9, more than two dozen settlements of Kherson region, including Kherson, Antonivka, Bilozerka, Beryslav, Kachkarivka, Tyahyntsi and others, came under heavy fire and air strikes by Russian troops.

The occupiers targeted residential areas, damaging a multi-storey building, at least 15 private homes, outbuildings and cars.
