Ukraine says 21 killed in Russian attack on Kherson

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said at least 21 people have been killed in Russian strikes on Ukraine’s southern Kherson region on Wednesday, as local authorities announced the introduction of a curfew in the main eponymous city.
“As of now, 21 people have been killed! 48 wounded!”, Zelenskyy said on Telegram. He said the shelling hit “a railway station and a crossing, a house, a hardware store, a grocery supermarket and a gas station”.

Reporting from Kherson, Al Jazeera’s Tamer al-Samadi said the artillery strikes hit one of the few working superstores in the city, with victims including both staff and customers.
