Since there were no people in the school, there were no casualties. However, a fire ignited during the Russian aviation attack, which firefighters later extinguished.
“Investigators from the National Police have been working at the scene since morning, documenting yet another crime by the occupiers. In addition to the school, six private homes have been damaged. Fortunately, there were no casualties,” Interior Minister of Ukraine Ihor Klymenko wrote on Telegram.
According to the Kherson Oblast Military Administration, over the past 24 hours, the Russians shelled the region 100 times, firing 474 rounds from mortars, artillery, Grad MLRS, tanks, UAVs, and aircraft. They fired 12 rounds at Kherson.
