Explosions were heard in Odessa during the night, causing damage to residential buildings in the region.

On the night of Monday, December 30, the Russian army launched a massive drone strike on the Odessa region. The explosions were heard by residents of Odessa itself.

This information was confirmed by the head of the Odessa regional military administration, Oleg Kiper. Preliminary reports indicate that there were no casualties among the civilian population.

It is known that Russian attack drones targeted the Odessa region during the night. Most of the objectives were successfully destroyed by air defense forces.

However, as a result of debris falling in the Razdelnyansky district of the Odessa region, windows, facades, and roofs of five residential buildings were damaged. There are no reported fatalities or injuries, preliminarily.

All emergency services are working at the scene. "Law enforcement officials are documenting the consequences of yet another crime by the Russians against the civilian population of the Odessa region," the report states.

Recall that on December 13, the Russians launched missiles at Ukraine, including "Kalibrs," and also carried out ballistic attacks. Additionally, the enemy deployed a MiG-31 into the air, causing alarms to sound across Ukraine.

Air defense systems were actively operational, including in the Kyiv region. Explosions were reported in Kharkiv, Poltava, and Khmelnytskyi regions. The enemy targeted energy infrastructure.

Earlier, "Telegraph" reported that on November 13, after a 73-day hiatus, Russia again attacked Kyiv with ballistic missiles and utilized strategic aviation for the airstrike. The missile attack was not massive, but Putin's focus was solely on Kyiv and the surrounding region. Most analysts and military experts warned that this could have been a "rehearsal" for a truly massive missile strike, suggesting that the enemy had accumulated a sufficient number of missiles during the more than two months of "calm."
