On May 10, a shelling killed[1] a woman in Kherson Oblast's Kakhovskyi District. Russian attack on Kherson Oblast's village of Stanislav on May 8, injured[2] six civilians, including a 9-year-old child. Ukraine's Armed Forces liberated the west bank of the Dnipro River in Kherson Oblast, including the regional capital, in November 2022.

The creation of two new military administrations comes amid high hopes for the anticipated counteroffensive. In an interview with the Bild newspaper, Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba attempted[3] to tamper the international expectations about the Ukrainian plans. "If we succeed in liberating our territories with this counteroffensive, you can say it was the last one, but if not, that means we have to prepare for the next counteroffensive," said Kuleba.
