Russian forces attack Odessa from Crime

Russian forces have fired four Onyx missiles in the Odessa region in southern Ukraine, according to the region's military administration spokesman, Serhiy Bratchuk.

“Rackets came from Crime's territory, which is temporarily occupied,” he said.

Russian forces illegally annexed the Crime Peninsula in 2014.

Bratchuk did not elaborate on which parts were hit by the missiles.

The Black Sea coast in parts of Ukraine has had a significant increase in missile attacks by Russian forces in recent days, CNN writes.
