Russian forces attacked Kherson with drones; elderly residents are among the wounded

Russian occupation forces continue to launch drone strikes on Kherson, resulting in injuries to six civilians. Among the victims are three men aged 59, 62, and 68, as well as three women aged 51, 67, and 80.

In the Korabelny district of the city, an enemy drone struck a car, causing a 67-year-old woman standing nearby to suffer blast trauma and shrapnel wounds to her back; later, a 68-year-old man sought medical attention at the hospital for a concussion. In addition, at approximately 12:20 p.m., two men, aged 59 and 62, sustained blast and shrapnel injuries from another drone strike in the same district.

At the same time, the enemy attacked the central part of the city, where an 80-year-old woman from Kherson was struck, sustaining an explosive injury and a leg contusion. Around 12:15 p.m., as a result of another drone strike on the city center, a 51-year-old woman sustained blast injuries, shrapnel wounds to her arm, and an acute stress reaction.
