The attacks came on the same day that Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky warned Kyiv of the potential for a new large-scale strike by Russia, referencing intelligence reports.

Odesa Oblast Governor Oleh Kiper said that as a result of the strike, a fire broke out and the ship’s captain, a Ukrainian citizen, was killed.

The meeting, described as "tense" by Bloomberg, included not just the EU wish for Ukraine to pass reforms, but also Kyiv criticizing a decision by EU countries that day to drop sanctions from two Russian oligarchs.

The number includes 1,560 casualties that Russian forces suffered over the past day.
