A Russian strike on Odesa on January 13 has damaged the building of the Polish Consulate General.

Polish Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maciej Wewior said this in a comment to Ukrinform.

"The windows in the Consulate General building were blown out as a result of the strike. The only fortunate aspect in this unfortunate situation is that the attack happened at night, when staff presence at the consulate was limited, so no one was injured," he said.

He added that the Polish Consulate General was likely damaged as a result of a missile strike.
