In total, Russian attacks on Ukraine-controlled Sudzha area have resulted in 36 civilian deaths and over 100 injuries, with continued strikes threatening the local population.
Persistent Russian terror requires Ukraine and its allies to continually replenish anti-missile stocks and enhancing mobile fire group capabilities, the President said.
The first explosions rocked Kherson around 5:00 a.m. on 20 December, beginning an hour of sustained Russian artillery fire that damaged dozens of buildings across multiple districts and killed two people.
Ukraine's Air Force says none of 108 drones reached their targets, but debris injured two people in Mykolaiv. A separate strike on Kharkiv injured one more civilians.
Drone debris wounded a woman. Russia’s Zaporizhzhia bombing left 10 dead, including children, and 27 injured, with 3 killed and 20 injured in separate attacks elsewhere.
A Russian drone dropped explosives on a bus in Kherson, injuring civilians, including elderly, with blast trauma and fractures. Eight remain hospitalized.
