Russian missiles attack port near Ukraine's Odesa, kill seven, officials say

On Dec. 19, a Russian missile attack struck port infrastructure around Odesa, Ukraine, killing seven and injuring 15, officials said.
The Odesa region has faced intensified aerial pressure in recent weeks, with rescuers from 12 regions deployed to manage damage to Odesa's port infrastructure, a key hub for Ukrainian exports.
Minutes after Ukraine's Air Force warned of a missile threat, explosions and fires erupted in Odesa Oblast, complicating emergency response.
A bridge on the M15 highway was damaged the night before, and Oleh Kiper said nonstop bombardment strains transport and logistics services in Odesa region.
The strike fits a broader pattern of attacks on civilian energy and utility systems, as Russian authorities did not respond and independent verification amid active hostilities remains difficult.
