During the day, several settlements in the Kherson region came under attack by Russian drones, artillery and aircraft. As a result of the attacks, people were killed and children were wounded.

Between June 1 and June 2, 2025, a number of settlements in the Kherson region were shelled by Russian troops. In particular, Beryslav, Antonivka, Stanislav, Kizomys, and Kherson came under attack. The enemy used drones, artillery and aircraft.

The attacks damaged critical and social infrastructure, as well as residential buildings. Three high-rise buildings, seven private homes, gas pipelines, a service station, warehouses, outbuildings, a garage, agricultural machinery and cars were damaged.

The shelling killed three people and injured 19 others, including two children.

At night, the air defense forces destroyed one Shahed-131/136 attack drone over the region.
