City mayor highlighted the attack consequences in his post.

"The blast wave shattered windows in the affected area," Trukhanov wrote.

"City services are working to clear the aftermath of the strike."

He also announced the establishment of an operational headquarters, where residents can apply for financial assistance and receive materials to temporarily cover broken windows and other damages.

Meanwhile, Odesa Oblast governor Oleh Kiper reported that air defense systems were active in the area and successfully intercepted a Russian missile.
