In total, 13 unmanned aerial vehicles were shot down by air defense fighters in the skies of Odesa region, and another 1 was shot down on approach in the skies of Mykolaiv region.
However, it was not possible to avoid hits. In Odesa region, barrage munitions damaged two mothballed agricultural enterprises. Fires broke out and industrial buildings were destroyed. The fires were extinguished. No people were injured.
