Russian forces bombarded Ukrainian towns and villages on the Dnieper River, pounding the area with more than 400 shells fired from tanks and artillery while also dropping explosives from drones, Ukrainian officials said.

The attacks may be a sign that Russia is trying to interfere with preparations for a Ukrainian counteroffensive in the south, which senior Ukrainian military and political leaders say will get underway by summer at the latest. At least one person was killed and six more wounded in the Russian attacks on the Kherson region over the past 24 hours, Ukrainian officials said. Moscow “carried out 93 attacks, launching 412 shells and rockets from heavy artillery and Grad multiple-launch rocket systems over the last day,” Oleksandr Prokudin, the head of the Kherson regional military administration, said in a statement.
Shelling of other areas across the entire stretch of the southern and eastern front lines has also increased, according to Ukrainian military reports, statements from Ukrainian emergency services and video footage, as have attacks on Ukrainian communities near the Russian border.
