Russia-Ukraine war live: strikes on Odesa leave three injured; Zelenskiy promises justice for deadly attack on Kherson

Odesa strikes leave three injured

Ukraine’s city of Odesa has endured another night of Russian drone and missile attacks, the latest of which have left at least three people injured, according to local officials.

The governor of the region on the Black Sea said falling rocket fragment had resulted in fires breaking out.

“Windows in buildings were blown out by the blast wave,” Oleh Kiper wrote on the Telegram messaging app.

Ukraine’s armed forces command in the south said that its air defence forces destroyed all 15 drones and eight Kalibr-type sea-based missiles that Russia launched at the port.

The nearby port city of Mykolaiv was also targeted, with air alarms sounding throughout the night.

Odesa, Ukraine’s largest port and naval base, has been repeatedly attacked with missiles and drones since Moscow last month pulled out of a UN backed agreement that allowed grain to be safely shipped from Ukraine’s ports.
