“The enemy once again attacked civilian infrastructure in Odesa region,” Kiper said.

Despite the active work of Ukraine’s air defense and the downing of several enemy drones, strikes on civilian facilities were recorded.

A large-scale fire broke out over an area of more than 5,000 square meters. The blaze engulfed several warehouse buildings storing fabrics, clothing, and packaging materials.

According to preliminary reports, one person was injured.

Emergency services are continuing work to eliminate the consequences of the enemy attack, Kiper added.

The State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES) reported on Telegram that one vehicle also burned down. Firefighting efforts were complicated by the heavy fire load and the lack of a dedicated water supply system at the facility.

Firefighters organized a continuous water supply using nearby sources.
