Shelling of Ukraine on the night of July 24

Since the beginning of the full-scale war, the Russians have regularly resorted to shelling the territory of Ukraine. For the attacks, the enemy uses missiles of various types, guided aerial bombs (KABs), artillery, and drones. The terrorists resort to drone attacks almost every night.

This night, in addition to Odesa, the enemy also attacked Cherkasy. As a result of the strike on the residential neighborhoods of the regional center, seven people were injured, including one child.
