Early Sunday, Russian drones targeted the Black Sea city of Mykolaiv, causing significant damage to a hotel and energy infrastructure, as reported by the local Ukrainian governor. The strike resulted in a fire at the hotel, which was later extinguished, and also damaged heat-generating infrastructure in the city. Fortunately, there were no casualties reported.
Reports from the Russian state agency RIA suggested that the strike on Mykolaiv aimed at a shipyard where naval drones are assembled, along with a hotel housing alleged 'English-speaking mercenaries' fighting for Kyiv. However, the claims made by a local pro-Moscow guerrilla coordinator could not be independently verified.
