In the evening of December 17 in Artsyz, Odesa region, as a result of a Russian drone attack, a nine-story residential building and an educational institution were damaged. This was reported by the head of the Odesa Regional Military Administration, Oleh Kiper.
According to him, seven people were affected by the strike: medical assistance was provided on the spot to six of them, and one victim was hospitalized in moderate condition. Kiper emphasized that no fires were recorded as a result of the attack, but the relevant services are working to eliminate the consequences of the damage.
Incident Background
Recall that since December 13, massive Russian drone and missile attacks have been ongoing in the region, targeting the energy and civil infrastructure of the Odesa region. These attacks have caused significant power outages lasting more than three days, leading to the declaration of a state-level emergency.
Measures to mitigate the consequences
According to the decision of the commission on technogenic and ecological safety and emergencies, the responsible authorities are working on restoring power supply and conducting preventive work with local entrepreneurs on the rational use of electricity. Currently, more than 30,000 consumers in the region remain without electricity.
To ensure the uninterrupted operation of critical infrastructure facilities, such as hospitals and invincibility points, additional funds have been provided to replenish stocks of fuel and lubricants for backup generators.
This situation is yet another challenge for the residents of the Odesa region, who continue to face the consequences of Russian aggression.
