Russian drone attack injures five in Ukraine’s Odesa, officials say

-

KYIV, Sept ‌13 (Reuters) - At least five people ​were wounded in a Russian attack on ⁠the Ukrainian city of Odesa on Sunday morning, officials said, a day ​after strikes on the city killed two ‌people.

"Residential areas were damaged in several districts of the city. Authorities are assessing the ⁠full extent of the ⁠damage," the head of Odesa military administration, Serhiy Lysak, said on Telegram.

Odesa, home to Ukraine's main port hub, ‌has faced persistent Russian missile and drone ⁠attacks in recent months, ‌forcing the closure of ​seaports crucial to Ukrainian exports.

According to officials, a Russian drone struck the ‌city on Saturday morning, ​hitting an ⁠apartment building and killing two people ‌while injuring 26.

Several ⁠other regions were also targeted in attacks in western Ukraine that continued through ​the night and ‌into the morning, regional authorities said ⁠on Sunday. They ​did not immediately report civilian casualties.
