Tragic Russian Strikes Claim Lives in Ukraine

 

Russian forces have killed three people in southern Ukraine, including in the vital Black Sea port city of Odesa, officials reported on Wednesday.

 

Since the onset of the invasion in February 2022, Russia has intensified its nocturnal assaults on urban centers across Ukraine.

 

According to Oleg Kiper, the governor of the Odesa region, the aggressor specifically targeted port infrastructure. “Unfortunately, two people were killed — a security guard and a truck driver,” Kiper stated. The exact cause of death remains uncertain, as it is unclear whether the fatalities resulted from direct missile impacts or debris from intercepted projectiles.

The southern defense forces reported that Russia launched a ballistic missile along with four guided missiles aimed at the southern port. “Due to effective countermeasures, three enemy Kh-59/Kh-69 missiles did not reach their targets,” they confirmed.

 

In a separate incident, a 62-year-old man lost his life due to Russian shelling in the southern city of Nikopol.

 

Ukraine’s air force successfully intercepted and destroyed 14 out of 20 drones launched by Russian forces overnight.

 

This tragic news follows closely on the heels of a rare daytime assault on the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, which resulted in the deaths of 34 people, as per the latest update from Kyiv’s military administration.
