KYIV: A Russian attack on Ukraine’s southern city of Odesa on Monday struck civilian infrastructure and caused casualties, the region’s governor said on the Telegram messaging app.
Ukraine’s interior ministry published photographs of a massive cloud of smoke rising from the site where emergency services were working to put out a fire.
The Ukrainian air force had warned the city’s residents of the threat of incoming missiles before the explosions sounded.
