Russian troops shell Kherson, killing a 14-year-old child
On December 31, the Russian military launched an attack on Kherson. At the time, there were children near a store, and a 14-year-old boy tragically lost his life due to the shelling.
Oleksandr Prokudin, the head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration, reported this.
A 9-year-old boy was also injured; he is in a severe condition. He has a brain injury.
Doctors are fighting for his life, added Prokudin.
The regional military administration also reported that over the past day, December 30, the Russians had carried out 71 shellings.
The enemy fired 380 shells from mortars, artillery, Grad MRLS, tanks, anti-aircraft guns, aviation, and drones.
The Russian military targeted the residential quarters of the populated areas of the region, administrative building, an educational institution, and an "invincibility point" in the Beryslav district.
Due to Russian aggression, two people died.
For reference:
It is worth noting that the occupiers are regularly shelling the Kherson region, in particular, the regional center itself. So, on December 26, the Russian occupiers hit the railway station in Kherson, and an evacuation train came under fire. As a result of the attack, a policeman died, and two others were hospitalized with shrapnel wounds.
The police officers on duty at the station urgently began evacuating people. Thanks to the actions of the police, everyone managed to get to safe places. Two civilians who received shrapnel wounds were given medical assistance.
