The targets of the latest offensive, which killed at least two civilians and wounded five, targeted infrastructure facilities, private buildings and apartments
The city of Kherson woke up to air warning sirens on Monday. A Russian “massive” attack with up to 57 bombings in one day killed at least two civilians and wounded another five, according to preliminary information, although authorities have not yet confirmed an exact number of casualties, the governor said in his Telegram of the region, Yaroslav Yanushevich, who urged the population to take shelter in shelters.
“The peaceful settlements in the region were attacked with multiple launchers, artillery and mortars,” Yanushevich denounced. One of the many projectiles fell into a residential area of the city and hit a house. According to the news agency Ukrinform, the power lines were damaged. The region’s governor assured that the bombings targeted infrastructure facilities, private buildings and apartments.
Given the situation, Volodimir Zelensky’s government has threatened more attacks on Russian territory. “We will strike where necessary, where we need to hit the enemy, because the enemy is there, from the border to Vladivostok,” warned Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council Secretary Oleksiy Danilov. And they will do it “without asking anyone’s permission.” “We are not about to ask where and how to destroy the enemy.”
In this sense, Foreign Minister Dimitro Kuleba rejected the West’s “moral lessons” on how to manage the war and some leaders’ criticism of launching offensives on Russian soil. Without confirming that Ukraine is behind the latest bombing of facilities in Russia, he criticized those who question whether or not to target such targets. And it is that, he assured, the attacked airfields housed warplanes that not only fire on their infrastructure, but also kill their civilians.
For this reason, Kuleba said he does not understand how his Western partners, especially the United States, warn them that they are “playing with fire” with these kinds of attacks. “If a murderer enters your house and tries to kill you, but one of your neighbors tells you ‘don’t play with fire, don’t challenge him’, you would probably say that your neighbor has gone mad.” the Ukrainian minister stressed , which he emphasized that “the best way to stop Russia is, of course, with weapons.”
Meanwhile, pro-Russian authorities controlling Donetsk denounced today that Kiev’s army fired fifty 155mm artillery shells at various positions, as well as five “Grad” rockets at the region’s capital.
In the northwest, in Lugansk, Ukrainian forces attacked a Wagner Group mercenary headquarters in the town of Kadiivka. The authorities failed to provide a balance of casualties, but the governor of the region under Ukrainian control, Sergei Gaidai, published on Telegram that “everyone is being mobilized. The racists – as they call the invaders – have started to recover bodies in the occupied areas.
