Ambulances are the primary target, followed by city buses and civilian cars. Explosives are also being dropped from drones and directly on people in the streets or in the garden.

According to the head of the Kherson regional military administration, OleksandrProkudin, this is deliberate terrorism:

"The occupiers are deliberately targeting civilians and boasting about it on social media."

To help the Ukrainian Armed Forces reduce the number of drones in the Kherson sector, the Milivska, Holoprystanska, Kalanchakska and Bilozerska communities purchased electronic warfare equipment worth over UAH 3.6 million. Thanks to the new equipment, the Defenders of Ukraine's marines will be able to neutralize more enemy UAVs, which currently pose a significant threat to the region's residents.

"Since the terrorist attacks of the Russian occupants on Kherson and the region do not stop, we are reinforcing the air defense and electronic warfare units with additional means," Prokudin said.

Another truck has also been added to the fleet of the Kherson regional defense unit. The vehicle was transferred to the Marine Corps Logistics Brigade to provide logistics. This vehicle is designed to perform various combat missions - from transportation of personnel to transportation of necessary cargo, including ammunition, even in off-road conditions. The vehicle was provided with the help of the NGO Important Actions.

And one of the units whose soldiers are performing combat missions in the Kherson sector received another batch of Mavic drones. These "birds" will now be the eyes in the sky for our soldiers. And the Russian occupiers will not be able to hide from a just punishment. In addition, another five electronic warfare systems were delivered to the troops in Kherson region for the marines of the Theater of Operations.
