Update: Oleh Kiper, Head of Odesa Oblast Military Administration, later confirmed that the Russians had attacked the Izmail district with drones. The Vylkove hromada was particularly targeted. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a village, several villages, or a town, and their adjacent territories – ed.]

"Despite the combat effectiveness of air defence forces, which destroyed most of the enemy UAVs, civilian infrastructure was damaged in the attack: a reed harvesting business and several apartment buildings... The appropriate services are working to deal with the aftermath of the attack," he added.
