In total, two launches of Kalibr cruise missiles from a submarine in the Black Sea area and eight Iranian Shahed-136/131 kamikaze drones from the Primorsko-Akhtarsk region were recorded.

Unfortunately, Kalibr missiles hit the port infrastructure of Odesa; they failed to hit [what they actually targeted], there is destruction and casualties."
