Russian troops struck central Kherson on the morning of Jan. 5, hitting a private house and killing a man, Kherson Oblast Governor Yaroslav Yanushevych wrote on Telegram.

Russia also attacked the villages of Chornobaivka and Komyshany with artillery, wounding four people and damaging houses, cars, farm buildings, power transmission lines, and gas pipelines, according to Yanushevych.
