Quote: “At about 11:57, the enemy launched an Iskander-M ballistic missile at Odesa, but it was intercepted by air defence. Unfortunately, the downed enemy missile fell into the residential area of the city’s Primorsky district, causing a tragedy. There have been both deaths and injuries. Our sympathies to the family and friends.”
Details: Furthermore, around 11:45 on approach to Odesa, Ukraine’s air defence systems shot down a Russian Orlan-10 UAV, which was purportedly intended to conduct aerial reconnaissance.
The Air Force reminds the civilian population that the Russian forces are cunning and merciless. Odesa is continually under attack from the Russians, as they actively strike densely populated cities with various types of missiles and attack UAVs, knowing that civilian losses will occur.
All citizens are asked not to ignore the air-raid warnings and to respond to them promptly.
