Russian drones attack Odesa: multi-story building struck, fires reported, and vehicle destroyed

On November 12, Russian forces launched a massive attack on Odesa and its suburbs using strike drones. Residential areas were targeted. Preliminary reports indicate there were no casualties.

One of the Russian drones struck a high-rise building in the “Odeski Tradytsii” (Odesa Traditions) residential complex. The moment of impact was captured on video. Debris from the drone was later discovered in the residential complex’s courtyard.

In the Luzanivka area, a drone—or debris from one—fell onto garages, sparking a fire. A private garage unit was also damaged.

Subsequently, Russian forces launched a second attack on the city. This time, a passenger car caught fire; according to preliminary reports, it was completely destroyed. The fire has since been extinguished.

Between 7:00 and 12:00, air raid alerts were issued six times in the Odesa district. The Air Force reported the movement of drones—including jet-powered ones—from the Black Sea toward Odesa.

As of 12:34, there have been no reports of casualties.

Emergency responders and other relevant services are working at the impact sites. The full extent of the damage is currently being assessed.
