Strikes on Ukrainian Cities Kill Three, Local Authorities Say
Lysak reported that 11 people were wounded, including a child, and that damage extended to a maternity hospital roof, high-rise buildings and homes across several districts.
Fresh strikes in Ukraine killed three people and left at least 13 others wounded, local officials said, underscoring how Russia’s war against Ukraine has continued largely uninterrupted even as international attention has focused on the Middle East.
The attacks struck Odesa and Kryvyi Rig, damaging residential areas as well as a maternity hospital and an industrial site.

In Odesa, Sergiy Lysak, head of the city’s military administration, said one person died in hospital from injuries received during overnight strikes.
Lysak reported that 11 people were wounded, including a child, and that damage extended to a maternity hospital roof, high-rise buildings and homes across several districts.
In Kryvyi Rig, Oleksandr Ganzha, head of the Dnipro regional administration, said a morning strike killed two men and wounded two others after hitting an industrial enterprise. He added that fires broke out at the site.
Separately, a Ukrainian drone attack in Russia’s Yaroslavl region, north-east of Moscow, killed a child and injured three people, while damaging several residential buildings and what the local governor described as “a retail object”.
“A child who was in one of the private houses in the suburban district of Yaroslavl region at the time of the attack has died,” governor Mikhail Evraev said on his Telegram channel.
“His parents have been hospitalised in a serious condition. A woman living in a neighbouring house was also injured. They are receiving all necessary medical care,” he added.
Evraev said Russian air defence units repelled more than 30 Ukrainian drones during the assault.
The Russian Defence Ministry said that overnight, a total of 155 Ukrainian drones were repelled and destroyed across a range of Russian regions, including the Moscow region.
