Later on Sunday, Ukrainian authorities also reported shelling in Kherson. Several civilians were also injured in a residential area there.

Zelenskyi: “Enemy will not dictate terms”
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed in Odessa on Sunday that he wants to liberate the currently occupied areas in the south of his country. “The enemy will certainly not dictate the conditions in the Black Sea. And the occupiers will be afraid to approach our Ukrainian Crimea and our coasts on the Sea of ​​​​Azov.” The Crimean peninsula was annexed in 2014 and Russian troops eventually occupied the Ukrainian cities on the Sea of ​​Azov during the war.

In Odessa, Zelenskyi met commanders and a wounded soldier in the hospital (see video above). The president published videos of it on Telegram.
