Russian forces opened fire on the village of Yantarne, not far from the city of Kherson, hitting a residential house on Jan. 12, Kherson Oblast Governor Yaroslav Yanushevych reported.

The attack killed a 27-year-old man and injured a 47-year-old woman, Yanushevych said.

Earlier in the day, the governor reported that Russian troops shelled Kherson Oblast 90 times over the past day, killing one person and injuring five more.

The Russian army has been shelling the Ukrainian-held part of Kherson Oblast daily.
