“Russian terrorists are shelling Kherson again,” Andriy Yermak, the head of Ukraine’s presidential office, said on messaging app Telegram.Oleksandr Prokudin, the head of Kherson’s regional military administration, said the casualties occurred when a car was hit by a shell and caught fire. The strike came two days after Russian artillery fire also killed three people in Kherson, according to the Ukrainian presidency.
Kherson is the capital of one of the four regions — along with Donetsk, Lugansk and Zaporizhzhia — that Russia claims to have annexed but does not fully control. Despite Russia’s retreat from the city of Kherson late last year, it has been regularly pounded by Moscow’s troops.Galyna Kolisnyk, 53, said the Russians struck when she was in a store.“Explosions began, our car got hit….This is horrible.”
