As a result of two hostile attacks during the night of December 22, a critical infrastructure facility in Odesa was damaged, leaving part of one of the city's districts without electricity.

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

According to him, a 30-year-old man was injured and taken to the hospital with moderate shrapnel wounds. The windows in the residential building were damaged.

Earlier, the Department of Education and Science of the Odesa City Council decided to switch the city's schools to distance learning due to regular prolonged air raids. The department recommended providing an asynchronous learning mode for students who do not have electricity at home.

Also on December 21, traffic restrictions in both directions on the M-15 Odesa-Reni highway (to Bucharest) within the village of Mayaki, which had been imposed after the Russian attack on the bridge over the Dniester, were lifted. On December 18, during an attack in Odesa district, an enemy attack drone hit a bridge connecting settlements in the area of the Dniester estuary and also hit a bridge over the Dniester River near the village of Mayaki. There, it hit a civilian car that was crossing the bridge. The car was occupied by a woman with three children. The mother was seriously injured and died in an ambulance. Her three children were taken to the hospital with injuries and acute stress reaction.

On the evening of December 19, Russia attacked a port infrastructure facility in Odesa district with ballistic missiles. A passenger bus was in the epicenter of the strike, with people on board who were killed and injured. Also, trucks caught fire in the parking lot and cars were damaged. In total, eight people were killed and 27 were injured.
