Russian drone attacks on the city of Odesa overnight on Feb. 8 damaged an unfinished multi-story building, as well as the building of an educational institution, Odesa Oblast Governor Oleh Kiper reported.

Kiper notes that no casualties or injuries were reported as a result of the attack.

The drone strikes resulted in shattered glass at the unfinished multi-story building, along with a pierced roof, damage to the ceilings, and broken windows at the educational institution building.
