A Russian attack on Ukraine's southern city of Odesa has struck civilian infrastructure and caused casualties, the region's governor says.
A massive cloud of smoke could be seen rising from the site where emergency services were working to put out a fire in photos published by Ukraine's interior ministry.
The Ukrainian air force had warned the city's residents of the threat of incoming missiles before the explosions sounded.
Odesa has been a frequent target of Russian forces, with many attacks aimed at the city's port facilities.
Russia denies targeting civilians or civilian infrastructure.
add that to the long list of blatant russian lies !
