Russia strikes Ukraine's KhersonRussia strikes Ukraine's Kherson and Mykolaiv regions injuring civilians despite Trump-backed truce
Russia launched strikes on Ukraine's southern Kherson and neighboring Mykolaiv regions on May 10, injuring at least six civilians including a teenager and a city council worker, Ukrainian authorities reported.
The attacks occurred despite a truce reportedly backed by US President Trump. The incident underscores ongoing violations in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, challenging diplomatic efforts for lasting peace.
- Kherson Oblast's Zelenivka village lies just 10 km from the Dnipro River, exposing it to frequent cross-river strikes.
- Mykolaiv shipyards built over 200 Soviet submarines, making it a prized target since 2022.
- Shahed drones, Iranian-designed and Russian-modified, have struck Ukrainian civilians over 10,000 times since 2022.
