This was stated by the head of the Kherson OVA, Oleksandr Prokudin.

There is no information yet about the victims. It is noted that details will be released later.

Later, the deputy head of the Kherson OVA, Oleksandr Tolokonnikov, reported that in total, the Russians probably struck with two FABs — one flew into the bridge, the other into houses. As of now, there are no casualties.

The condition of the bridge to the Korabel neighborhood, he said, will be clear after experts inspect the site of the impact.

Meanwhile, the head of the Kherson City Military Administration, Yaroslav Shanko, is urging people to temporarily refrain from traveling in this direction — until further notice.

The Russians cynically reported on their resources that they had given themselves a “gift” for Airborne Forces Day. And they confirmed that they had dropped the FAB-3000 on Kherson.
