Drones flew in waves during the night, the main impact fell on Odesa and Kharkiv regions.

Drones launched by the Russian army also flew to the Danube ports. Telegram channels reported at night about explosions and air defense operations in the districts of Izmail and Reni.

Reni is the furthest Ukrainian port on the Danube from the Black Sea, located near the junction of the borders of Ukraine, Romania and Moldova.

Through Reni and Izmail, Ukraine exports agricultural products by sea. The Danube and Black Sea ports of Odesa have been subject to constant Russian drone and missile strikes in the second half of last year, following Russia's withdrawal from the agreement on a safe sea corridor for the export of Ukrainian agricultural products.
