Mourning declared for those who lost their lives in Odessa; Russia continued infrastructure attacks

On the night of July 21, 2026, Russian troops repeated their air strikes on infrastructure facilities in the Odessa region. While the attacks targeted infrastructure, according to preliminary information announced by local authorities, none of the region's residents lost their lives or were injured in these night attacks.

Following the attacks, a one-day mourning was declared in Odessa for the officials who lost their lives in previous clashes and attacks. Authorities accuse Russia, stating that these events in the region constitute a war crime.

While security concerns continue in the region, the Odessa local administration announced that the situation is being closely monitored and necessary measures are being taken to ensure the public is not harmed. The absence of casualties in the night attacks is considered a small consolation for the local population.
