On the night of October 23, Russian troops attacked Odesa region with Shahed attack drones, nine of which were shot down by air defense forces. This was reported by the Southern Defense Forces of Ukraine.

Debris from the downed drone damaged the roof of a warehouse building at a port infrastructure facility in Odesa district. The fire was quickly extinguished by firefighters. No one was injured.
