Mortar shelling in Esman injured one woman, who was transferred to a hospital for treatment.
No additional casualties or damage to civilian infrastructure were reported.

Independent journalism needs a community —
not a paywall.
We’re working hard to show the world the truth of Russia’s brutal war — and we’re keeping it free for everyone, because reliable information should be available to all.
Our goal: reach 20,000 members to prove independent journalism can survive without paywalls, billionaires, or compromise. Will you help us do it?
