KHERSON, June 18. /TASS/: A bomb went off in the car of Yevgeny Sobolev, head of the Kherson Region penal service, who was taken to a hospital, a law enforcement source told TASS.
His official’s life isn’t in danger, the source said.
"The car of the head of the penal service was blown up. His life isn’t in danger at the moment. He’s been hospitalized," the source said.
In mid-March, the Russian Defense Ministry said the Kherson region was under a complete control of Russian troops. At the end of April, a military-civilian administration was formed to run the region. The region has a dual-currency system, allowing both the ruble and hryvnia as legal tender. Cellular communications use the Russian international code +7, and transmission of Russian TV channels has been started.
