One person was killed and at least ten people were injured in a Russian attack on Odesa, according to Ukrainian authorities. The Ukrainian news organisation Ukrinform reports that a child was among the injured.
The attack struck the southern Ukrainian port city of Odesa. Ukrainian authorities reported one death and at least ten injuries after the attack. Details about the weapons used and the exact damage were not fully available in the initial reports.
Ukrinform bases the casualty figures on statements by Ukrainian authorities. Independent media also reported a large-scale attack on Odesa and the surrounding region, but could not independently verify all the details.
Odesa is an important Black Sea port city and a regular target of Russian missile and drone attacks. Attacks on the city can therefore affect infrastructure, transport and the export of goods from Ukraine.
The Russian government has not provided independent confirmation of the Ukrainian account of the attack in the sources consulted. As is often the case with war reporting, casualty figures and damage may still change later.
The attack took place while Ukraine and Russia were discussing possible talks through international mediation. No direct link between those diplomatic contacts and the attack has been established.

Editor's note
The casualty figures are based on Ukrainian authorities and have not been fully independently verified. The text therefore explicitly attributes the claims and avoids definitive conclusions about the attack.Sources
