Two men who were wounded in Russian attacks in the Mykolaiv region on July 16 died in hospitals. In Kherson, doctors were unable to save an elderly woman who was injured during an artillery attack that morning.

The Mykolaiv Regional Military Administration reported that a 48-year-old man died in the hospital after being wounded during a rocket attack on Ochakiv using a multiple launch rocket system. A 65-year-old man also died after being wounded in an attack by a Russian “Shahed” kamikaze drone on the Novobuzka community.

At the same time, no new Russian shelling was recorded in the Mykolaiv region over the past 24 hours.

In addition, Yaroslav Shanko, head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration, reported the death of an elderly woman who sustained severe injuries that morning during a Russian artillery attack on a residential building in the Korabelny district of Kherson.

Doctors fought to save her life until the very end, but were unable to save her—her injuries proved fatal.
