A drone struck a grocery store in Kherson: one person was injured

A Russian "Molniya"-type drone attacked a store in the Central District of Kherson. A 36-year-old woman was injured in the strike.

This was reported by Yaroslav Shanko, head of the Kherson Military Administration.

 According to him, after the attack, the victim was taken to a hospital, where she received the necessary medical care.

“A place where people shop for daily necessities and work has once again become the target of a Russian attack,” the official noted.

The strike on the store was yet another instance of the Russian military using drones against Kherson’s civilian infrastructure.

Recently, residents of Kherson filed a lawsuit against the Americancompany Ubiquiti Inc., which, in their opinion, sells radio transmitters to Russian drone crews.

Previously, the Russian military used a drone totarget a civilian man at amarket in Kherson. According to police, the victim was a 52-year-old resident of the Mykolaiv region. He survived but suffered blast trauma, a concussion, and shrapnel wounds. 

As a reminder, Russian occupiers received orders to conduct so-called “free hunting” of vehicles in the Kherson region. To carry out their terrorist plans, they increased the presence of their drone units in the region.

On August 6, Russian invadersattacked a bus carryingcivilians in the Kherson region with a drone. Six people were injured as a result of the strike. The operator of an FPV drone deliberately aimed the drone at a bus carrying civilians. The passengers were mostly elderly people on their way to work in the fields.

Later that same day, an occupier drone struck a route bus in the Dnipro district of Kherson. Five passengers are known to have been injured, including a15-year-old teenager. The injured teenager was hospitalized in moderate condition.
