Prokudin emphasized that the occupiers have been attacking the Ostrovskyi Bridge for the third day in a row. The structure was damaged, but it is still possible to move along it.
The head of the Regional Military Administration added that approximately 1,800 civilians continue to remain in the Korabel neighborhood. Among them are 31 children and 187 people with limited mobility.
He urged people to evacuate while the bridge can still be used for transport.
"There are 35 vehicles intended for evacuation, including ambulances for transporting people with limited mobility. For each and every person who decides to evacuate, places for comfortable accommodation in shelters have been prepared," the head of the Regional Military Administration wrote.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, the day before, the Kherson Regional Military Administration showed the consequences of the russian airstrike on the Ostrovskyi Bridge, which they carried out on Saturday, August 2.
