Four killed and several injured in Russia's overnight strikes on Ukraine
Russian forces on Thursday staged a series of mass drone attacks on Ukraine's Black Sea port of Odesa, killing one person, injuring at least four and causing several fires as well as damage in the historic centre, a Unesco world heritage site.
The famous Pryvoz market in Odesa was among the places hit, regional governor Oleh Kiper said. "It is not just a place of trade, it is the living heart of Odesa," he added.
Mr Kiper said the body of a man had been recovered from under rubble at a multi-storey apartment building.
Russia also attacked the central region of Cherkasy overnight, injuring seven people, including a nine-year-old, and damaging more than a dozen residential apartment buildings.
In Kharkiv, Ukraine's second largest city in the northeast, two people were killed and at least 33 were wounded when Russian glide bombs struck a residential neighbourhood, officials said.
Another person was killed in a drone attack in Sumy region on the northern border, where Russian troops have established a foothold in recent months.
