Ukraine: Russian strikes hit Odesa and Zaporizhzhia, injuring four

Russian overnight strikes injured four people in Zaporizhzhia and sparked fires in the Odesa region on Monday. Ukrainian emergency services said an industrial site was hit twice more as firefighters battled the flames.

Ukraine has reported that Russian forces attacked Odesa and Zaporizhzhia, resulting in four injuries. In Odesa, a private industrial facility was struck twice while firefighters were responding to a blaze, causing damage to equipment but no casualties among the crews. A second site saw four garages damaged, a fire breaking out, and one car destroyed.

Zaporizhzhia experienced attacks on private homes, a hotel, two buses, and outbuildings, as well as three cars catching fire and dry vegetation burning. The regional military administration head initially reported two injuries but later increased the toll to four: two women aged 22 and 30, and two men aged 40 and 61. Ukraine's Air Force claimed that Russia launched 140 Shahed-type attack drones and decoys, successfully shooting down or suppressing 112 drones and three guided missiles.

Emergency crews are still working at the impact sites to address ongoing fires and assess structural damage.
