The Russian army attacked Odesa twice - in the evening of January 11 and at night of January 12 - and as a result of these attacks, the city's infrastructure and two people were injured.

According to the head of the Odesa City Military Administration, Serhiy Lysak, people were injured in the evening attack, and part of the Peresypskyi district of the city was left without electricity as a result of the earlier attack.

Currently, an operational headquarters is working at the site of the attacks, and utility companies are repairing the damage in the buildings.

According to the South Air Command, on the night of January 12, the enemy attacked the country with 156 Shahed, Gerbera and other types of attack drones. According to preliminary data, as of 8:00 a.m., air defense neutralized 135 enemy UAVs.

There were hits of 16 attack UAVs at 11 locations, as well as the fall of downed UAVs (wreckage) at two locations.

In the morning of January 10, the Russian army attacked industrial infrastructure in the Odesa region. As a result of the attack, an empty tank was damaged on the territory of a port company, and insulation caught fire. However, there has been no information on the deaths and injuries so far.

On January 9, while en route to the port of Chornomorsk, a Russian attack drone hit a civilian ship flying the foreign flag of Saint Kitts and Nevis, which was on its way to load grain cargo within the Ukrainian Sea Corridor. There were victims. The vessel's seaworthiness was not affected and it is underway and headed for the nearest port. A vessel flying the flag of the Comoros, which was transporting soybeans, was also attacked near the port of Odesa. A crew member, a Syrian citizen, was killed in the attack.
