The Russians hit an oil depot by "Shahed" drones. The attack was at night, at about 3 am. A pillar of smoke was visible this morning. At first, I thought that the hit was on the outskirts of Dubno, in the Czech Straklov, but people say that it was the oil depot in the village of Buscha which was completely destroyed. Smoke from the fire could be seen even in Rivne.

    The UNICEF children's fund called the photo "Under the dark clouds of war" the photo of 2023. This is a story by the Pole Patrik Jaracz, made the day after the Russian Shahed attack on the oil depot. In the photo, five-year-old Alina is learning to ride a bicycle, black smoke rises in the background.

     I took this photo at about 11 o'clock in the morning, after a nighttime strike by Russian drones.

 It is reported in the local news that tonight the Russians launched a missile attack on the airfield in Dubno. There was an air raid during the night, but we heard nothing. The head of the regional military administration, Vitaliy Koval, said that as a result of the fall of the rocket, farm buildings were damaged and windows were broken. There are no victims.

The Russians hit the Dnieper with a missile and hit a residential high-rise. Many apartments on the upper floors were destroyed. The number of victims is unknown.

 For the fourth night in a row, the Russians are shelling Odesa with missiles. At the beginning, they bombed a grain warehouse in the port. 60 thousand tons of grain, which were to be sold to China, were destroyed. Tonight, the center of Odessa was fired with rockets. The Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate and up to 40 historical buildings were damaged. The Archaeological, Maritime and Literary Museums were damaged

 At night, the Crimean Bridge was attacked by two naval drones. As a result of the explosion the road section of the bridge fell into the water. The explosion killed two people who were driving a car to Crimea on vacation. Traffic on the bridge is blocked. Russians are directing transport through the occupied territories of the Donetsk region.

 In Krasnodar, the deputy head of the city's mobilization work department, captain of the second rank (lieutenant colonel) Stanislav Rzytsky was killed. He was killed with four shots in the back during a morning run. Rzytsky commanded submarines "Krasnodar" and "Alros". It is possible that Vinnytsia was fired with missiles from his submarine, where many people had been killed.

 The Russians shelled Lviv with Kalibr missiles. They hit a residential building and another infrastructure object. 4 people died. The spokesman of the Air Force of Ukraine stated that the anti-aircraft defense failed to destroy all the targets due to a sharp change in the direction of the missiles. At first they flew to the north, and then turned to the west. At the end of the day, it was reported that 10 people had died.
