The body of a resident of Odesa district was found in one of the houses damaged as a result of an attack by unmanned aerial vehicles sent by the Russian army to Odesa region.

This was reported by the head of the Odesa regional military administration, Oleh Kiper.

According to him, a number of civilian infrastructure facilities, including private homes, were damaged as a result of the Russian strike on Odesa district. Fires broke out in some places and were extinguished by rescuers.

Earlier, specialists from the State Environmental Inspectorate of the Southwestern District investigated the consequences of the missile strike on Odesa by the Russians on the evening of April 22 and estimated the damage at more than UAH 1.2 million.

On the evening of April 22, from 22:15 to 23:20, the Russian armed forces launched a massive drone attack on Odesa and the surrounding areas. The shelling caused a fire in the warehouse and administrative premises of a private enterprise in the Tairova community. The total area of the fire amounted to 5 thousand square meters.

The shelling damaged civilian infrastructure, including the premises of a private enterprise, residential buildings and several cars. A 66-year-old man was injured and hospitalized with burns.

Specialists of the State Environmental Inspectorate of the Southwestern District also investigated the consequences of the missile strike on Odesa, which was carried out by the Russians on the night of April 21-22, and estimated the total damage at 583 thousand hryvnias. The mass of carbon dioxide emissions into the air then amounted to almost 192 tons, and the total area of the fire was 2,420 square meters.

Environmental inspectors have calculated the environmental damage caused by a Russian drone attack in the Peresypskyi district of Odesa on the night of April 13-14, 2025. Then, as a result of enemy shelling, the warehouses of a private enterprise caught fire. The total area of the fire was about 1,000 square meters. According to environmental services, the fire released almost 80 tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The estimated amount of environmental damage exceeded UAH 241 thousand.
