Three people are killed by Russian strikes in Ukraine

Authorities reported on Wednesday that three persons had died as a result of Russian strikes in southern Ukraine, notably in the Black Sea port of Odesa.

From February 2022, when it began its invasion of Ukraine, Russia has attacked cities every night.

“The adversary targeted the Odesa region’s port infrastructure. Regulator Oleg Kiper stated, “Unfortunately, two people were killed—a security guard and a truck driver.”

It was unclear if falling debris from downed missiles or direct impacts was what killed the people.

Russia reportedly fired four guided missiles and a ballistic missile toward the southern port, according to the southern defense forces.

“As a result of active countermeasures, three enemy Kh-59/Kh-69 missiles did not reach their targets,” it added.

In a related incident, Russian bombardment of the southern city of Nikopol claimed the life of a 62-year-old man.

According to the air force, 14 of the 20 drones that were launched over Ukraine were destroyed.

The announcement was made two days after 34 people were slain in an unusual daytime attack on the Ukrainian capital, according to an updated death toll provided by Kyiv’s military administration.
