Russian Drones Slam Into 2 Ukrainian Cities, Killing at Least 1 Person in Nighttime Attack

During the night of June 20, 2025, Russian drone strikes targeted the southern Ukrainian port city of Odesa, resulting in one fatality and injuring at least 14 people, while also causing damage to residential buildings and railway facilities.
The attack followed Russia's continued drone and missile strikes on Odesa, part of the broader conflict since Putin ordered the invasion in February 2022.
Emergency crews quickly extinguished large fires caused by at least 10 drone strikes hitting residential buildings and other civilian infrastructure across eight locations.
Local governor Oleh Kiper reported on Telegram that despite active air defenses downing 70 drones, damage affected homes, a university, a gas pipeline, private cars, and the Odesa railway station including power wires and rails.
The strikes underscore ongoing threats to Odesa, a key Ukrainian port vital for imports and exports, highlighting persistent challenges to civilian infrastructure amid stalled peace talks.
