Tragedy strikes 128th Mountain Assault Brigade in Zaporizhzhia; Ukraine attacks Kerch shipyard hitting ‘advanced’ cruise missile ship
Russian drone attacks on Odesa late on Sunday evening left at least five people injured, set grain trucks on fire and damaged one of the city’s principal art galleries, Ukrainian officials in the Black Sea port said. Reuters carried the report:
“On November 6, the Odesa National Art Museum turns 124 years old,” Oleh Kiper, governor of the Odesa region, of which the Odesa city is the administrative centre, said on the Telegram messaging app. “On the eve of November 6, the Russians ‘congratulated’ our architectural monument with a missile that hit nearby.”
The walls of the building were damaged, some windows and glass were broken, he said. Kipper later said that 15 Russia-launched drones were destroyed over the city. Several high-rise residential buildings were damaged and warehouse and trucks with grain caught fire, which was promptly extinguished.
A review published on Wednesday is expected to reveal the European Commission position on whether negotiations should open or not with countries most advanced with their accession reforms.
“We do not want any discounts because of the war,” Olga Stefanishyna said, adding she was confident of a decision in the Ukraine’s favour.
