At least 24 people were killed and more than 50 others injured in a drone strike in Kherson Region, according to the governor<\/strong><\/p>\n

The press-service of the governor of Russia\u2019s Kherson Region has published gruesome images of the aftermath of a deadly Ukrainian attack on civilians celebrating New Year\u2019s Eve in the Black Sea coastal village of Khorly.<\/p>\n

At least 24 people were killed and more than 50 others injured in the UAV strike on a cafe and hotel shortly after midnight, Governor Vladimir Saldo said in a post on Telegram earlier on Thursday. Three UAVs, one of which allegedly carried an incendiary mixture, hit the crowded venue, triggering a massive blaze, he said.<\/p>\n

Graphic photos from the scene showed total destruction and the subsequent fire, with heavily burnt bodies scattered throughout the rubble.<\/p>\n

The governor said the attack in Khorly could only be compared to the May 2014 Odessa massacre. At the time, Ukrainian ultra-nationalists who supported the then recent Western-backed coup in Kiev chased 42 anti-government protesters into the city\u2019s Trade Unions House before setting the building on fire and burning all of them alive.<\/p>\n
