At around 6:00 a.m., three people in a house in Kherson came under Russian fire: a 39-year-old woman, her 15-year-old daughter, and a 41-year-old man.

The teen and her mother were hospitalized with explosive injuries and contusions, with additional injuries to the woman's back. The man received medical assistance on the spot.

It is also noted that at 5:00 a.m., Russian troops attacked Kindiyka, hitting residential homes and injuring two people. A 49-year-old woman and a 58-year-old man were hospitalized with contusions, blast injuries, and shrapnel wounds. 

In addition, a 59-year-old resident of Antonivka was admitted to the hospital after sustaining shrapnel wounds to his forearm and shin due to the Russian attack.

The Regional Military Administration also added that at about 5:30 a.m., Russian troops attacked a 40-year-old woman in Kindiyka with a drone. 

She sustained an explosive injury and a shrapnel wound to her back as a result of the UAV's explosive drop. The victim was provided with medical aid and released for outpatient treatment.

Later, at about 2:00 p.m., the head of the Regional Military Administration said that Russian troops attacked Kherson residents who were on the street with drones. So far, three people have been injured in another Russian attack on Kherson. 

A man sustained injuries incompatible with life.
