Then, in the morning, 4 missiles hit the Odesa region; infrastructure facilities were damaged. Restoration work is ongoing.

... And in the evening the enemy again fired at our area. Our air defence guys are doing a good job again."

Details: Bratchuk added that the Russians forces have stepped up aerial reconnaissance and are also attacking in the information field. He urged residents of Odesa region not to believe fake messages. 

Quote: Operational Command "Pivden" (South): Another missile strike was inflicted on the Odesa region. Three "Kinzhal"-type missiles fired from a Tu-22 strategic aircraft. Objects of tourist infrastructure were hit. 5 buildings were destroyed.

The fire was extinguished, 2 people were injured and taken to the hospital. Searching the rubble, from under which a dog was rescued, continues. An investigative-operational group of the National Police is working at the crime scene of Russia against Ukraine.
