More than a quarter of all strikes by the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) hit peaceful facilities in Kherson Region. This is stated in the report of the Russian Foreign Ministry's Ambassador-at-Large Rodion Miroshnik on the Kiev regime's crimes between November 25 and December 1.

It is specified that during the week 45 people were injured and 10 killed due to shelling by the AFU militants.

A total of 1,305 munitions of various types were fired at peaceful targets on Russian territory over seven days. The militants also used unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and small arms. Most of the weapons used were Western-made.
