The governor of the Odesa governor, Oleh Kiper, said on Monday that one person had been killed in an overnight attack on Odesa in southwestern Ukraine: one body has so far been retrieved from the rubble. One more grain warehouse employee remains unaccounted for.
A nationwide air raid alert was issued in Ukraine after the country’s air force reported a Shahed kamikaze drone strike on the southwestern Odesa region in the early hours of Monday morning. Seaport infrastructure in Odesa was damaged, Kiper said, as were several non-residential buildings in the city.
