Russian troops shelled Kherson and more than 30 settlements in the region, damaging housing, infrastructure and vehicles, including an ambulance. As a result of the attacks, 12 people were wounded, including a child.

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

From April 22 to 23, Russian military fire and air strikes covered towns and villages in the Kherson region. Antonivka, Zelenivka, Molodizhne, Komyshany, Sadove and other settlements of Kherson region were hit by shelling.

Residential areas and critical infrastructure came under fire, with two high-rise buildings, 12 private houses, an ambulance and several cars damaged. As a result of the enemy's aggression, 12 people were wounded, including one child.

According to Prokudin, the head of the Kherson Military District, on April 22 at about 5 p.m. Russian troops fired on Kherson. One of the shells hit a building in the Central District, damaging the facade, smashing windows and destroying balconies.

A 6-year-old girl was inside at the time of the hit. She sustained moderate injuries and is currently in the hospital, where she is being treated.

From April 17 to April 21, Russian troops did not stop shelling Kherson region, striking residential areas, civilian infrastructure and agricultural facilities on a daily basis. The attacks were accompanied by the use of artillery, drones and air strikes.

From April 20 to April 21, 13 settlements in the region came under enemy fire. The occupiers targeted shops and residential areas. Three people were wounded and three people died.

On April 19-20, the terrorist country continued to attack Kherson region, targeting residential areas. At least three multi-storey buildings, five private houses, a hangar, agricultural machinery and private cars were damaged. Nine people were injured in the shelling.

On the night of April 18, the region was subjected to massive shelling and bombardment, killing four people and injuring 25 others. A child was among the victims. Nine multi-storey buildings, ten private houses, an ambulance and civilian vehicles were hit.

Due to the constant shelling in the frontline Antonovka starosta district, it is impossible to evacuate the bodies of the dead in time, as they remain in the open for several days. The work of emergency services is hampered by continuous attacks and the high risk of repeated attacks.
