70-Year-Old Woman Killed in Russian Drone Strike on Kherson Apartment

A 70-year-old woman was killed when a Russian drone struck an apartment building in the Dniprovsky district of Kherson. The attack occurred at approximately 19:10 local time, causing significant damage to the residential building.

Emergency services and rescue workers responded to the scene. Local officials confirmed the fatality and reported that debris from the strike caused additional damage to nearby structures.

Kherson, located on the Dnipro River, has been under constant Russian bombardment since Ukraine liberated the city in late 2022. The city's proximity to Russian-controlled territories across the river makes it a frequent target for drone strikes and artillery shelling, resulting in a steady stream of civilian casualties.
