Russian forces shelled a grain terminal in the Beryslav area in Kherson Oblast overnight on July 28, local authorities reported.

Russian military carried out 29 attacks on the oblast using mortars, artillery, tanks, aircraft and UAVs, targeting residential buildings and wounding four people.

Russian forces shelled the city of Kherson 11 times in the past days.

The city and the oblast have become the daily target of Russian forces, garrisonned on the other side of the river since Ukraine liberated the city in November 2022.
