Russian strikes kill 6 knock out power in ukraine city
Russia fired almost 50 Shahed drones at targets in Ukraine and shelled a train station where more than 100 civilians were gathered to catch a train to Kyiv, Ukrainian officials said on Wednesday.The barrages killed at least five persons and knocked out power in most of the southern city of Kherson.
Overnight, the Kremlin’s forces launched an artillery and drone bombardment of the Kherson region just as some 140 civilians were waiting for a train at the region’s capital city of the same name, according to Ukrainian Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko.
The shelling killed one policeman and injured two other police officers, as well as two civilians.
The attack on the Kherson region and its capital hit residential areas and a mall as well as striking the power grid, leaving around 70% of households in Kherson city without electricity during the winter cold. In Odesa, another major city in southern Ukraine, the drone assault killed two people and wounded three, including a 17-year-old man.
Ukraine’s air force said it intercepted 32 out of the 46 drones that Russia fired overnight.
