Sharjah24 - Reuters: The Ukrainian military said that three people were murdered in the early hours of Saturday following a Russian drone strike on the Black Sea city of Odesa when drone debris landed on an apartment building and started a fire.
Air defences in Odesa region shot down eight "Shahed" drones and two missiles in the latest in a spate of overnight air strikes on Ukrainian cities in recent weeks, a spokesperson for the southern military command said.
"As a result of the air fight, debris from one of the drones fell onto a high-rise apartment, causing a fire," the military official, Natalia Humeniuk, said in a statement.
The emergency services said 27 people, including three children, were wounded, but that the fire had been rapidly put out and 12 people were rescued from the building.
