The city of Odessa was targeted by strikes. The report shows 6 dead and 18 injured.

When the missile hit a building in a residential area of ​​Odessa, Ukraine, on Saturday April 23, it started a fire that firefighters were able to quickly bring under control. The emergency services took out the 86 residents, still shocked, one by one. Saturday afternoon, several high-precision missiles also targeted the military airfield outside the city, destroying, say the Russians, a stock of weapons delivered by the United States and several European countries.

The strikes left at least 6 dead and 18 injured. In Mariupol, it is Ukrainian soldiers who go down to the shelters to help the civilians. Families have been living in a basement for weeks. “We need help because we are at the heart of the fighting, we can’t get out of here”, launches a Ukrainian. According to the document broadcast by France Télévisions, all these civilians are in the bowels of this immense Azovstal metallurgical complex, bombarded for weeks by Russian forces, where there are still hundreds of fighters from the Azov battalion, who refuse to surrender.
