KYIV, Aug 13 (Reuters) - Russian shelling killed seven people, including a 23-day-old infant, and wounded 20 in Ukraine's southern region of Kherson on Sunday, prompting local officials to declare Monday a day of mourning. Kyiv reclaimed part of Kherson from Russian occupation last November but Kremlin troops have continued shelling the regional capital and areas around it from across the Dnipro River. A couple, their 23-day-old child and another man were killed in the village of Shyroka Balka, Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko said. Two people, including the pastor of a church, were killed in the neighbouring village of Stanislav, according to Governor Oleksandr Prokudin.

Russian shelling ripped into homes in the Kherson region of southern Ukraine on Sunday morning, officials said, an assault that killed at least seven people, including a family of four, in an area that had already borne a heavy toll from relentless Russian bombardment. Calling it “another tragic day” for the region, Mr. Prokudin said that shelling had also killed two men and injured a woman in the village of Stanislav. The claims about the attacks in the Kherson region on Sunday could not be independently verified, and Russia’s Ministry of Defense did not immediately comment. But it has been under nonstop shelling since November, when Russian forces retreated from the regional capital, the city of Kherson, across the Dnipro River. From their new positions on the river’s eastern bank, Moscow’s troops have launched regular and deadly attacks on the city they once occupied and the towns around it.
