The number of victims of the air attack on Odesa launched by the Russian army on March 28 has increased to three.

This was reported by the head of the Odesa City Military Administration, Serhiy Lysak.

According to him, it is a 76-year-old man who was seriously injured.

"All this time, doctors in the intensive care unit were fighting for his life, but due to the severity of the injuries, the man's heart stopped," he said.

On March 28, Russians attacked Odesa with 60 unmanned aerial vehicles. The strike killed two people on the same day. Another 14 were injured. The Russians also hit the roof of a four-story maternity hospital building without causing a fire. At the time of the attack, there were 80 people in the facility, including 33 medical workers, all of whom were in the shelter. Damage and partial destruction were reported to private and multi-storey buildings, as well as critical infrastructure facilities. The territory of the telecenter was also damaged.

According to the command of the Ukrainian Air Force, on the night of March 28, the enemy attacked with 273 Shahed, Gerbera, Italmass and other types of attack drones. Odesa region was the main target of the attack. As of 7:30 a.m., air defense defenses had neutralized 252 enemy drones.
