Life under shelling in frontline Kherson
Residents of Kherson walk past a mobile concrete shelter in the city's ''red'' zone, considered the most dangerous area due to frequent military operations, in Kherson, Ukraine, on June 3, 2026. The city experiences daily drone activity, including FPV drones and other unmanned aerial vehicles. Local authorities report that police officers, medics, public transport, and urban infrastructure are affected. Kherson is informally divided into ''yellow'' and ''red'' zones, with the ''red'' zone experiencing continuous shelling and drone strikes. Anti-drone netting has been installed above roads to help protect against drone activity. (Photo by Dmytro Smolienko/Ukrinform/NurPhoto)
