Drone Attack on Kherson: Two Injured as Russian Troops Strike
In the heart of Kherson, Russian troops launched a drone attack on May 2, causing chaos. Two men, aged 52 and 60, were unfortunate victims.
Oleksandr Prokudin, Kherson Oblast Military Administration head, reported that around 1 PM, assailants, allegedly Russian troops, assaulted the city center with a Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The enemy struck a parking lot, resulting in a car going up in flames and leaving other vehicles damaged.
The aftermath saw the two injured individuals rushed to the hospital for the necessary medical attention.
This distressing event follows an FPV drone strike in Stanislav (Kherson region), which tragically took the life of a 34-year-old man on May 2 at 10:40.
As for military insights, Russian forces ramped up offensive operations near Kizomys (west of the Dnipro River) between May 1 and 2, yet no significant territorial advances were reported in the Kherson direction. Simultaneously, Ukrainian forces struck back with overnight drone attacks on Russian airfields in occupied Crimea on May 1-2, targeting infrastructure used for Shahed drone launches.
The Kherson Regional Prosecutor’s Office has initiated a war crimes investigation into the attacks, shedding light on these alarming developments. Make sure to stay updated for the latest happenings in the ongoing conflict.
