During the day, the enemy launched more than 30 attacks from rocket salvo systems, in particular on the civilian infrastructure of the city of Kherson. There are victims among the civilian population.
The threat of further Russian air and missile strikes on the entire territory of Ukraine remains high.

Since February 20 of this year, mass roundups have been conducted in the Chaplin district of the Kherson region due to the high level of desertion from the ranks of the Russian occupation forces. Special attention is paid to abandoned cottages and houses.
Since the beginning of 2023, the criminogenic situation has significantly worsened in the temporarily occupied territory of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, particularly in the city of Sevastopol. The reason was the appearance of ex-prisoners who fought in the so-called "Wagner" military unit and were amnestied after the end of the contract. In case of detention for committed crimes, they are not sent to correctional institutions, but back to the front line.
During the day, the aviation of the Defense Forces of Ukraine carried out 4 strikes on the areas of concentration of personnel and military equipment of the occupiers.
