Odesa has been a frequent Russian target in the more than 2.5-year-old war, as have the port facilities located near the city.

“A multi-story residential building was destroyed in the center of Odesa, apartments were set on fire, high-rise apartments were damaged, along with about 30 cars,” Odesa Regional Governor Oleh Kiper said on Telegram.

“Enemy fire also damaged the main central heating pipeline. The boiler plant has been temporarily shut down and repair work is under way.”

Heating infrastructure for one of the city's maternity hospitals was also damaged, he said. Kiper earlier said the assault was carried out by drones, but Odesa Mayor Gennadiy Trukhanov described it as a “mass combined enemy strike,” suggesting other weaponry was also used.

Photos posted on Kiper's Telegram account showed an apartment building on fire, smoke billowing out of windows and firefighters stationed nearby.
