Tanks entered the port town of Kherson on Wednesday (March 2), a provincial capital of around 250,000 people, and Russian forces occupied the regional administration building on Thursday (March 3) according to an online post published by regional governor Hennadiy Laguta on the same day.

Kherson is the first significant urban center to fall into the hands of Russian troops.

Russia said its forces had stopped firing near two besieged Ukrainian cities on Saturday to allow safe passage to civilians fleeing fighting, but city officials said Moscow was not fully observing the partial ceasefire.
