Another series of missile attacks from Russia on Ukraine took place early Thursday, but Ukrainian officials say they were able to shoot down all but one of the 30 missiles fired.
The missile that made it through Ukraine’s defenses hit an industrial building in the city of Odesa, killing one person and injuring two. However, officials in Kyiv say the targets were all over the country, and that Ukrainian air systems took down four drones as well.
General Valerii Zaluzhnyi, commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, said in a Telegram post Thursday that Russia launched this latest barrage from Russian sea, air, and ground bases.This attack comes ahead of a much-anticipated Ukrainian counteroffensive using newly supplied advanced Western weapons.
Experts are seeing this derailment in Crimea as essentially part of the coordinated prep work for the counteroffensive.
