The deputy head of the pro-Russian administration claims the attack targeted his office
The Ukrainian military has struck the office of the pro-Russian administration in the southern city of Kherson, the local authorities claim. Kirill Stremousov, the deputy chair of the military-civilian administration, said the strike was meant specifically to take him out.
According to RIA Novosti, citing a correspondent on the ground, the attack left at least one person dead and another one injured. The report claims at least five missiles launched from a US-made HIMARS (High Mobility Artillery Rocket System) hit the seat of the pro-Russian administration.
One of the rockets hit the local authorities’ office, the deputy head of the military-civilian administration, Ekaterina Gubareva, told journalists.
She added that the only known death so far is that of a driver of one of the officials, though the latter was injured.
