Russian forces attacked Odesa early Monday, July 13, damaging the city’s transport infrastructure, according to the head of the Odesa City Military Administration, Serhiy Lysak.

“There was a hit on the city’s transport infrastructure. We are clarifying the details,” Lysak said.
Local Telegram channels reported that a parking lot was hit, setting dozens of vehicles on fire.
In a later update, the Odesa City Military Administration said Russian forces had struck a transport company, setting several buses on fire and damaging four private homes.
Authorities initially said that three men, aged 58, 62 and 66, were injured in the attack. All were hospitalized in stable condition.
Lysak later reported that the number of injured had risen, including a five-year-old child.
“The child was hospitalized with shrapnel wounds and is receiving all necessary medical care. Russia is a terrorist state,” he wrote.
The latest attack followed another Russian drone strike on the Odesa region late Sunday, when drones hit a residential building and a commercial facility.
