One drone struck an already damaged energy infrastructure facility in the Kryvyi Rih district. Rescuers are putting out a massive fire. There were no victims.

Five drones were shot down above Mykolaiv Oblast. Four were shot down over the sea near Odesa Oblast, and two were shot down over Kherson Oblast."

Details: At first, the Pivden (South) Operational Command reported that one drone was shot down in the Kryvyi Rih district, and one struck an energy facility. But a later report only left the information about the strikes and specified a total number of launched and shot down drones.

Earlier, the heads of military administrations of different oblasts reported that three drones were shot down in Mykolaiv Oblast and four more were allegedly shot down in Odesa Oblast on Friday evening. 

An air-raid siren was also sounded in Kyiv Oblast, and air defence was activated.
