In the evening, Russians lauched 12 guided aerial bombs on Beryslav, hitting a private house. A 65-year-old man, buried under the rubble, lost his life on the spot.

A 57-year-old citizen, who was outside during the shelling, is also a casualty, sustaining multiple injuries, including limb fractures.
