Russian airstrikes killed at least 21 people, including an 11-year-old boy, in residential areas near Odesa, Ukraine, striking an apartment building and a campsite.
Ukrainian authorities interpreted the attack as retaliation for Russia's recent withdrawal from strategic Snake Island in the Black Sea.
President Zelenskyy highlighted that Russia used Kh-22 anti-ship missiles, designed for large warships, against civilian structures, leading to significant casualties.
This incident follows other recent strikes on civilian targets, occurring as intense fighting continues in eastern Ukraine and international military aid to Ukraine increases.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
