Russian forces killed a man on his birthday, among other civilian casualties

Russian forces conducted shelling in Semenivka, Chernihiv Oblast, and Stepnohirsk, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, resulting in the loss of three lives.

Around 15:00, Russian forces targeted Semenivka in the Novhorod-Siverskyi district, damaging over 30 buildings and other vital civil infrastructure. A 32-year-old local resident lost his life in the attack.

In Zaporizhzhia Oblast, specifically in Stepnohirsk, a 43-year-old local resident’s birthday celebration turned into a tragedy as Russian shelling claimed his life at 12:10. Yuriy Malashko, the head of Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration, conveyed the cynical nature of the attack on residential areas.

Additionally, today in the suburbs of Kherson, a 55-year-old man lost his life due to Russian shelling while present in his backyard.
