A Russian strike on the Kherson city's Korabel municipal district on Dec. 4 damaged a kindergarten and injured one person, Governor Oleksandr Prokudin reported.

Russian forces carried out the attack at 11 a.m., damaging walls and windows of the kindergarten, the governor said.

The report did not mention whether the injured person was a child or a staff member of the kindergarten.

The full consequences of the attack are still being determined.

Ukraine's Armed Forces liberated Kherson and other regional settlements west of the Dnipro River in the fall 2022 counteroffensive.

Russian forces were pushed to the east of the river, from where they have since been firing at the liberated territories, regularly resulting in civilian deaths and injuries.

Two people were killed and eight injured in Russian attacks on Kherson Oblast over the past day, Prokudin said in his morning report on Dec. 4.

Сeasefire would leave 25% of Ukraine under Russian control, ambassador says.

"Many countries have proposed the idea of a ceasefire, but no one thinks about what it means. Some 25% of Ukrainian territory would remain under Russian control, which means buying time for Russia to strengthen its capabilities and resume its attacks on Ukraine," Ambassador of Ukraine to Turkey Vasyl Bodnar said.
