Tragedy struck the Black Sea port city of Odesa on Monday as a Russian missile attack claimed the lives of at least five individuals and left over 30 others injured, according to Ukrainian authorities.
The attack, captured in dramatic video footage released by Ukraine’s Prosecutor General, depicted numerous bomblets exploding in rapid succession near the seafront area. Additional images showcased flames engulfing the distinctive cone-shaped towers and roof of a local educational institution colloquially referred to as the “Harry Potter castle” due to its architectural resemblance to a Scottish baronial structure.
