This concerns a residential building that suffered serious damage as a result of Russia’s nighttime attack on Odesa on 12 September. Several floors in the upper part of the building were destroyed, and the blast wave also damaged neighboring buildings and a low-pressure gas pipeline. At another address, three more residential buildings were damaged, one of which was completely destroyed.

Their number was clarified and increased during the day: at first city authorities spoke of six, then — of 12 and 17 injured. According to Oleh Kiper, during emergency search-and-rescue operations at the site of the missile strike, rescuers discovered the body of a man born in 1992.
