Three killed in Russian drone attack on Ukraine's Kherson, governor says


KYIV (Reuters) - At least three people were killed in a Russian drone attack on the southern Ukrainian city of Kherson, the regional governor said on Sunday.

Seven more people were wounded in the morning attack, which targeted public transportation, Oleksandr Prokudin wrote on the Telegram messaging app.

Russian forces withdrew from Kherson city in late 2022 but have regularly attacked the regional capital with artillery and drones from the other side of the Dnipro river.
