According to Ukrinform, Head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration Oleksandr Prokudin reported the incident on Facebook.

"Early this morning, Russian forces launched a massive attack on the Central district of Kherson. The occupiers used aviation to strike residential neighborhoods. Later, when emergency services arrived at the scene, the enemy continued intermittent artillery shelling," Prokudin wrote.

He emphasized that this is a deliberate Russian tactic aimed at disrupting rescue operations and harming medics, rescuers, and police officers.

As a result of the attacks, a sports facility, a supermarket, civilian vehicles, as well as private and multi-story residential buildings were damaged.

Currently, it is confirmed that one man was killed while on the street during the shelling. Three other individuals were wounded.
