According to Главком: Russian troops launched strikes on the right-bank area of the Kherson region, injuring six people and killing one. The fatality occurred in Shyroka Balka, where a local resident born in 1964 lost his life. The assaults involved aerial bombings, artillery fire, and drone attacks, targeting roughly 40 towns and villages across the region.

According to Oleksandr Prokudin, the shelling damaged seven apartment buildings and 17 private houses. Additionally, social infrastructure facilities, including a local gas pipeline, were affected. Private garages and civilian cars were also damaged in the attacks.

Strikes on Kharkiv and Odesa

On the night of June 1, Russian occupiers used drones to attack Kharkiv and its suburbs. The shelling in Kharkiv destroyed two garages and sparked a fire. Meanwhile, an attack on Odesa that same night left five people injured, two of whom were hospitalized.

Overall, the situation in the region remains tense, as ongoing shelling continues to damage both infrastructure and civilian life. The Kherson region and nearby settlements such as Antonivka, Komyshany, Sadove, and others remain vulnerable to further attacks.

These events highlight the ongoing danger to civilians in regions under fire, as well as the severe consequences for infrastructure. Amid constant military operations, the population faces new challenges, particularly regarding safety and access to basic necessities. The situation in the Kherson region and other affected areas remains extremely difficult, requiring attention from both local authorities and the international community.
