Details: On July 11, local residents reported powerful explosions in Tavriysk and near the airfield in Chornobayivka.
It is indicated that this information is being clarified, details will be announced later.
The Regional Military Administration reminded us that for almost a month and a half, there have been no mobile communications from Ukrainian operators in the temporarily occupied area of the Kherson region.
Some internet providers are operational in the region, but because internet traffic goes through Russia, most local residents do not have full access to social media networks, Ukrainian news, and banking applications, and thus cannot make online payments.
The situation in the temporarily occupied communities of the Kherson region remains critical.
The occupiers kidnap and detain local residents, and also confiscate their vehicles and mobile phones.
According to the Regional Military Administration, on July 10 in Kherson, the Armed Forces of Ukraine launched a high-precision missile attack on the captured military unit on Pestelya Street, where the Russian occupiers were stationed.
Because of an explosion in a military unit, a fire broke out over an area of 640 m2. According to preliminary information, the Ukrainian military inflicted heavy losses on the invaders’ equipment and personnel. Throughout the day, Pestelya Street and the surrounding streets were blocked by the occupying forces.
Kherson suffered from smoke damage due to a fire in the fields in the Tavriysk microdistrict and the suburbs. According to eyewitnesses, the occupiers did not allow rescuers to be sent to extinguish the fire, as everyone was focused on the morning events in the military unit.
The occupiers conduct searches of local residents, stop Kherson residents at roadblocks, and break into private homes.
