The Russian army attacked energy infrastructure facilities in Odesa Oblast with strike drones, local governor Oleh Kiper reported on Telegram on Oct. 31.
Strike hit one industrial facility. A fire broke out at the site and was promptly extinguished by rescuers.
Kiper noted that there are no reports of casualties.
Ukrainian Air Force said that Russia attacked Ukraine with an Iskander-M ballistic missile and 145 strike drones — including Shahed and Gerbera types — as well as other UAVs. Air defense intercepted the missile and 107 drones.
On Oct. 30, Russian forces carried out the third combined attack on Ukraine’s energy sector since the start of the month. The strikes led to power outages affecting hundreds of settlements across various oblasts.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
