KYIV, 15 July 2022, (TON): Ukraine launched long-range rocket attacks on Russian forces in southern Ukraine and destroyed an ammunition store, its military said as Russia continued to pound the country’s east.
“The strike on Nova Kakhovka in the Kherson region killed 52 people” Ukraine’s military said.
The town’s Russia-installed authorities said “at least seven people had been killed and around 70 injured, Russia’s TASS news agency reported.”
The strike came after Washington supplied Ukraine with advanced HIMARS mobile artillery systems which Kyiv says its forces are using with growing efficiency.
Reuters could not independently verify the battlefield accounts.
Ukraine’s southern military command said in statement “based on the results of our rocket and artillery units, the enemy lost 52, an Msta-B howitzer, a mortar and seven armored and other vehicles, as well as an ammunition depot in Nova Kakhovka.”
