Authorities: Russian attacks in Kherson Oblast injure 3

Russian forces struck Kherson and the village of Havrylivka in Kherson Oblast on Feb. 13, wounding three residents, the Kherson Oblast Military Administration reported.

Ukraine's Armed Forces liberated Kherson and other regional settlements on the west bank of the Dnipro River in the fall 2022 counteroffensive.

Russian troops were pushed to the river's east bank, from where they have since been firing at the liberated territories, regularly resulting in civilian deaths as well as large-scale destruction of homes and infrastructure.

In the latest attack, a Russian drone hit a residential building in Havrylivka near Beryslav, injuring a 71-year-old woman and a 36-year-old man, the regional authorities said on Telegram.

They were hospitalized with shrapnel wounds and blast injuries.

Russian forces struck a residential area in Kherson earlier the same day, wounding a 60-year-old woman, according to the regional administration.

An 83-year-old woman was killed in a Russian overnight attack on the village of Lvove in Kherson Oblast, Oleksandr Prokudin, the regional governor, said early on Feb. 13.

Russian attacks against Kherson Oblast overnight and on the previous day injured two other people and hit residential areas, according to Prokudin.
