The Russian army launched another air strike on the center of Kherson. The building of the regional administration is completely destroyed.

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

The attack took place in the morning - in less than 15 minutes, the occupiers shelled the city center with four guided bombs at once. In addition to the military command center, residential buildings were damaged: one of the entrances of a high-rise building was completely destroyed, windows were smashed and facades were cut.

Two wounded men, aged 74 and 68, have been reported. Their condition is being monitored by doctors. The rescuers also pulled four people out of the basement who did not need medical attention.

An operational headquarters is working at the site: rescuers, medics and representatives of the Civil Defense are eliminating the consequences of the shelling and helping the residents. Information about the victims is being clarified.

From June 4 to 5, 2025, several settlements in the Kherson region came under massive enemy fire from drones, artillery and aircraft. The shelling damaged two high-rise buildings, about 20 private houses, as well as a garage and several cars. Two people were killed in the attacks and ten others were injured.

On the night of June 4, Russian forces launched more than 20 drones in Odesa region. The air defense forces shot down most of the drones, but civilian objects in the city were damaged, including residential buildings and a car service center. One person was wounded in the attack, and nine others sought psychological help.

Overnight, Russian troops also destroyed key infrastructure facilities in the peaceful village of Vyshneve in Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi district: a lyceum with a preschool department, a center for children and youth creativity, and a medical outpatient clinic.
