At least two people died as a result of Russian military action in the southern Ukrainian city of Kherson, and three were injured, Regional Governor Oleksandr Prokudin reported on Monday.

Images published on Prokudin’s Telegram channel showed burnt-out apartments in a multi-storey building.

The Dnipro River has marked the front line between Ukrainian and Russian forces since Russian forces withdrew from the city to the opposite bank in November 2022.

Moscow continued to lay claim to the entire Kherson region.

Ukraine has been defending itself against the full-scale Russian invasion for more than two and a half years.
