Russian forces struck a Novaya Pochta logistics center in Odessa that Moscow's defense ministry says was being used to store military cargo, according to Russian state news agency TASS.
The ministry's statement did not provide further details on the scale of the strike or the extent of any damage to the facility, though it framed the target as part of a broader effort to disrupt logistics supporting Ukrainian military operations.
Novaya Pochta is a major postal and logistics operator in Ukraine, and Russian officials have periodically accused such civilian logistics networks of being used to transport military-related supplies, a characterization Ukrainian authorities have not confirmed in relation to this specific incident.
Odessa, a key Black Sea port city, has been repeatedly targeted by Russian strikes throughout the conflict, with the region's port and logistics infrastructure frequently cited by Moscow as targets tied to Ukraine's military supply chains.
There was no immediate independent confirmation of the ministry's claim regarding the nature of the cargo stored at the facility, and Ukrainian officials had not issued a public response to the specific report at the time of writing.
The strike adds to the ongoing pattern of attacks on infrastructure in and around Odessa amid the broader war between Russia and Ukraine.
