Details: The boy himself said that "a cluster shell flew into my room. I was folding the sofa. The first strike hit my room. The blast came from the right side – my leg hurts, my arm hurts, and there's ringing in my ear".

According to Inna Kholodniak, director of the Kherson Oblast Children's Hospital, the teenager was brought to the medical facility in the morning in a moderate condition.

"This morning, a teenager was admitted with a mine-blast injury, a concussion, and superficial wounds to the head and torso," she said.

Doctors provided the necessary medical care, and the boy remains in hospital.

Background: On 24 October, two women were killed in the Russian attack on Kherson's Korabelnyi district. A total of 14 people were injured, including the rescued teenager.
