At least one person has died and three been injured in Russian attacks in the southern Ukrainian city of Kherson. It is reportedly a form of two-stage attack, where Russia carried out a new attack when rescue personnel arrived at the scene, according to authorities quoted by AFP.

Earlier on Wednesday, at least three people were injured in a Russian drone attack on the nearby port city of Odessa, according to the country's state emergency service.

Several fires broke out and residential buildings, warehouses, and other civilian infrastructure were damaged in the attack, which Governor Oleh Kiper describes as extensive.

Powerful explosions were heard in the city in several rounds after midnight, according to the city's mayor.
