Family killed in Russian shelling in Ukraine's Kherson
Russian shelling has killed seven people, including a 23-day-old infant, and wounded 20 others in Ukraine's southern region of Kherson, prompting local officials to declare a day of mourning. Kyiv reclaimed part of Kherson from Russian occupation last November, but Kremlin troops have continued shelling the regional capital and areas around it from across the Dnipro River. A couple, their 23-day-old child and another man were killed in the village of Shyroka Balka, Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko said on Sunday. The couple's 12-year-old son was critically wounded and died in hospital. "The terrorists will never willingly stop killing civilians," Klymenko wrote in a Telegram post.
