Russia carried out an attack against the village of Novotiahynka in Kherson Oblast on Jan. 26, injuring a 51-year-old woman, the regional military administration reported.

The victim was hospitalized with a blast injury and provided all necessary assistance, the administration said.

No further details were provided at the moment.

Novotiahynka lies on the Ukraine-controlled west bank of the Dnipro River, some 30 kilometers east of the regional center, Kherson.

Ukraine's Armed Forces liberated Kherson and other regional settlements on the western bank of the Dnipro River in November 2022.

Russian troops were pushed to the eastern bank, from where they have since been firing at the liberated territories, regularly resulting in civilian deaths and injuries.

"These are frozen Russian assets held in Europe, belonging to Russians who are destroying Ukraine and killing people there every day... the idea of releasing these assets is completely out of the question," said Finnish Prime Minister Petteri Orpo.
