Russian drone strike injures teen and devastates homes in Odesa suburbs

Initially, no injuries were reported, but Odesa governor Oleh Kiper later clarified that a 14-year-old boy was wounded in Velykodolynske in the attack.

The teenager sustained lacerations to his leg.

In Odesa suburbs, the impact destroyed a residential house covering 100 square meters, sparking a fire that emergency responders quickly extinguished.

The attack also damaged the roofs of nearby homes, an outbuilding, two garages, three cars, a fence, and a gas pipeline — though no fire broke out at the pipeline site.

At another location, two garages were destroyed in a blaze, a car was completely burned, and a residential home was damaged.

Earlier in the night, explosions were reported in the city of Odesa.

Russian forces again launched Shahed drones and missiles across Ukraine overnight on May 26. Explosions were heard in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Khmelnytskyi Oblast, and other oblasts.
