Odesa regional governor Oleh Kiper said that overnight Russia attacked the region with strike drones.

According to him, transformers at a transport infrastructure facility were damaged in the strike, causing a fire. Kiper said State Emergency Service personnel promptly extinguished the blaze.

Ukraine’s Air Force said Russian invaders attacked Ukraine with 154 strike UAVs, including Shaheds, Gerberas and other types. About 80 of them were Shaheds. Air defenses shot down 128 drones.
