The report does not provide further details about the circumstances of the attack, its exact location within the region, or the specific time it occurred. It is also not stated whether anyone else was injured or whether other damage was caused.

Part of ongoing wartime toll on civilians

The case highlights how Russia's military actions in Ukraine continue to affect civilians, including children, across different regions of the country. Mykolaiv region, located in southern Ukraine along the Black Sea coast, has repeatedly been targeted by Russian attacks throughout the war.

Ukrainska Pravda published the report as current news, and further details may be added later once Ukrainian authorities or local officials provide an official confirmation and a fuller account of the incident.
