In the past week alone, 18 people have been killed and 69 have been injured, including six children, as a result of Russian attacks on Odesa Oblast. During this period, the Russians directed approximately 300 aerial assets to attack the region – 50 to 60 per day."

Details: Kiper also reported that 40 beach zones have been opened in Odesa Oblast that have been inspected, have shelters and are considered relatively safe.

He noted, however, that "beaches were opened not for tourism but for the wellbeing of our citizens, primarily military personnel, veterans and their children, who are under constant stress because of the war".

Kiper urged people not to visit beaches that do not meet safety requirements.

"Drones and missiles mostly approach from the sea, and the beach zone becomes the first line where air defence operates. That is precisely why it is extremely important not to ignore air-raid warnings and to head to a shelter immediately when one is issued," he explained.
