According to the local authorities, there were also casualties on the opposite side of the Dnipro River, which forms the front line. Vladimir Saldo, the regional chief appointed by Moscow, wrote on Telegram that at least two people had been killed. A further six were injured. The Ukrainian army is said to have used rockets with cluster munitions.
Ukraine has been defending itself against a Russian invasion for almost three years. Parts of the Kherson region are occupied by Russia. Since the Russian withdrawal from the regional capital in November 2022, the Dnipro River has separated the warring parties.
