Russian drone attacks overnight damaged port infrastructure in Ukraine’s southern Odesa region. Two people were wounded in the city of Odesa, according to regional governor Oleh Kiper.

An apartment building was destroyed and its roof caught fire following strikes on a 16-storey building. In another high-rise, the fire engulfed the 12th floor, emergency services said.

Photos posted by authorities showed a high-rise building ablaze and firefighters working at the site. The seaports authority reported that ports in the Greater Odesa hub and on the Danube River came under attack.

The strikes caused damage to berthing and storage facilities and started local fires, which were promptly brought under control. Ports continue to operate, the authority added.
