Editor’s note: This is a developing story and is being updated.
Russia launched a missile attack against downtown Odesa on Nov. 25, injuring at least 11 people, Governor Oleh Kiper reported.
Two people received medical attention on-site, one is receiving treatment on an outpatient basis, and eight civilians have been hospitalized. One woman is in serious condition, according to the governor.
“Civilian infrastructure was damaged, namely residential buildings,” Kiper said. Officials later said that the damage was caused by fallen missile debris.
Russia launched the strike into a densely populated residential area where there are no military targets, damaging a school and a university sports hall, said Oleksandr Kharlov, Kiper’s deputy. No students were reported as injured, as they were hiding in shelters.
The attack came shortly after Russian forces struck the city of Kharkiv, injuring at least 23 people.
“Since yesterday evening, Russia has used around 150 attack drones, aerial bombs, and missiles against more than 10 Ukrainian regions,” President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Telegram on Nov. 25.
Odesa, lying on the Black Sea coast in southern Ukraine, is home to some 1 million residents. The port city has been repeatedly targeted throughout the full-scale war.
An earlier missile attack on Odesa on Nov. 18 killed at least 10 people and injured over 50.
