Night attacks on the Odesa region
In recent weeks, Russian forces have intensified their nighttime attacks on the Odesa region, attempting to destroy port infrastructure.

Later, the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement claiming that during the Russian attack, drones fell and exploded on Romanian territory. However, Bucharest refutes this information.
