Russia launched a mass drone attack on Odesa overnight on April 30, striking residential neighborhoods across multiple districts of the city and injuring at least 18 people, according to State Emergency Service.
The heaviest damage was recorded in Odesa's Prymorskyi district, according to Serhii Lysak, head of the local military administration.
A high-rise apartment building and a five-story residential building were damaged in the district, sparking large fires on the upper floors and roof that rescuers later managed to contain.
The attack also damaged private homes in central Odesa, as well as a kindergarten, a shopping center, a hotel, and administrative buildings, Lysak reported.
In the Khadzhibeyskyi district, strikes hit infrastructure facilities, warehouses, and a garage cooperative, while dozens of buses and passenger cars were destroyed or damaged in parking areas across the city.
