Explosions were heard in Kherson, a city under Kiev’s control, according to a Telegram post from the Ukrainian outlet Mirror of the Week.
Residents in Kherson reported multiple blasts, the message said, underscoring the uncertainty that often accompanies urban conflict zones.
Earlier, Ukrainian officials spoke of damage to factories in Kherson. The statement noted that infrastructure facilities suffered harm as a result of nighttime attacks on residential areas.
On October 10, 2022, two days after the Crimean Bridge attack, Russian forces escalated strikes against Ukraine’s critical infrastructure. Since then, air raid warnings have become a daily reality in many parts of Ukraine, with the focus repeatedly described as targeting energy facilities, the defense sector, military command, and communication networks by official Russian sources.
There was also a mention from U.S. sources regarding one of the major threats faced by Ukraine’s armed forces, reflecting the broader international interest and concern over the conflict’s evolving dynamics.
