"Residents of the Odesa region, there is still a missile threat to our region. Please stay in shelters! Take care of yourself and your loved ones," the official said.

The Ukrainian Air Force reports that Russia launched a combined attack on Ukraine overnight, using air-launched cruise missiles and attack UAVs.

A total of 16 targets were recorded: six Shahed-136/131 drones and 10 X-101/X-555/X-55 missiles. The aggressor directed them mainly to the south of the Odesa region.

The defenders of the sky shot down 12 targets: six drones and six missiles. At the same time, missiles hit the territory of a civilian agricultural enterprise in the Odesa region. Rescuers were working at the site.

Serhiy Bratchuk, spokesman for the Ukrainian Volunteer Army South and head of the Public Council at the Odesa Regional Military Administration, said that the enemy used complex maneuvering tactics when launching X-101/X-555 cruise missiles. However, the air defense forces were working with maximum concentration. In particular, two Russian kamikaze drones and five missiles were shot down by the defenders of the sky over the Odesa region.

According to Oleh Kiper, the head of the RMA, infrastructure was damaged in the Bereziv district. Russian terrorists damaged agricultural infrastructure there, including farmland and a grain storage facility. Fortunately, there were no casualties. All relevant services were working to eliminate the consequences of the attack.

As OBOZREVATEL reported, on the night of September 8, the Russian occupation forces launched 20 kamikaze attack drones towards the Odesa region. The defenders of the Ukrainian sky shot down 16 Shaheds.
