Russian forces have carried out another overnight attack on Ukrainian military and logistics targets in Odessa Region, according to Moscow. The assault targeted two vessels at sea, port infrastructure, fuel storage facilities, and a coastal missile battery.

In a statement published on Wednesday, the ministry reported that the strikes employed high-precision air- and ground-launched weapons, as well as attack drones.

At the Port of Odessa, Russian forces hit infrastructure used for unloading and storing military cargo, along with fuel and lubricant tanks intended to supply the Ukrainian armed forces. A dry cargo ship and a bulk carrier were also struck while sailing 15 km and 53 km southeast of Odessa. The ministry stated that these vessels were transporting supplies for Kiev’s forces.

In the city of Odessa, the attack targeted a logistics center operated by the Ukrainian delivery company Novaya Pochta, which Moscow described as a storage site for military cargo. Near the settlement of Kovalevka, approximately 25 km northwest of Odessa, Russian forces destroyed a Ukrainian Neptune-2 coastal missile battery. The strike damaged two launchers and a transporter-loader vehicle, according to the ministry.

This attack occurs amid an intensified Russian campaign against Ukrainian Black Sea shipping and port infrastructure. Recent weeks have seen Moscow report strikes on cargo vessels and facilities in Odessa, Chernomorsk, Yuzhny, and Nikolayev, which are believed to be involved in delivering military equipment or supporting Ukrainian drone operations.

On Tuesday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Russia would continue striking vessels used to transport weapons and ammunition to Ukraine. Moscow claims the broader campaign is aimed at disrupting military supplies to Kiev and comes in response to Ukrainian terrorist attacks on Russian civilian and energy infrastructure.
