According to the Telegram message of Oleh Kiper, the head of Odesa Regional Military Administration, during a night of Russian shelling, the building of the Chinese Consulate General in Odesa sustained damage.

"The aggressor deliberately targets the port infrastructure - causing damage to administrative and residential buildings in the vicinity, as well as the Consulate General of the People's Republic of China. This indicates the enemy's disregard for any norms," Kiper wrote.
