Russia hit Odessa with several missiles from the Caspian Sea.




Six people were killed and eighteen were injured in an apartment building hit by one of the missiles. After the strike, the Russian Defense Ministry said that "a high-precision missile of the Russian Air Force this afternoon disabled a logistics terminal at a military airfield near Odessa, which housed a large consignment of foreign weapons from the United States and European countries."
