"The barbarians destroyed the Kherson book collection, which had pleased the youngest and their parents for years," Prokudin wrote on his Telegram channel on Friday.
He added: "The most important thing is that no people were hurt. And we will definitely renovate the walls."
"Over the past day, the enemy launched 119 attacks, firing 638 shells from mortars, artillery, Grads, tanks, anti-tank grenade launchers, UAVs and aircraft," Prokudin also said.
He added that "the enemy fired 91 shells at the city of Kherson."
"As a result of Russian aggression, three people were killed in the last 24 hours, and another 11, including two children, were injured," Prokudin reported.
Russia in 2014 annexed the Crimea peninsula from Ukraine and then fomented a separatist conflict in that country's eastern Donbas region. It has since occupied significant parts of Ukraine.
On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, starting the largest military conflict in Europe since World War II.
Friday is day 639 of Russia’s war on Ukraine.
