According to a video published by the activist on Telegram, the Ingul hotel, located near the port pier, and which housed Western instructors, was practically destroyed.

Lebedev added that the attack also damaged the Nibulon shipyard, where unmanned boats were manufactured; a detonation was also reported at the Nika-Tera seaport.

The Russian Defense Ministry reported earlier that it had launched strikes on the Ukrainian ports of Odessa, Nikolaev and Ilyichevsk, targeting arms and fuel depots and facilities where drones were manufactured or stored in retaliation for an attack on the Kerch Strait Bridge in eastern Crimea using marine drones.
