Russia attacked Ukraine overnight on 13 November with 117 strike drones, Ukraine's Air Force says. Two people died and 13 were wounded in Russian strikes on Odesa, Rivne and Vinnytsia. Russia has waged a full-scale war on Ukraine since February 2022.
What Russia used
The drones included 117 Shahed strike drones, 63 of them jet-powered, plus Gerbera and Parodiya decoy drones. Aircraft, anti-aircraft missile units, electronic warfare teams and mobile fire groups fought them.
By 07:30, 80 enemy drones had been shot down or jammed, 39 of them jet-powered. Drones hit 24 places, and debris from downed drones fell on 10 more. Some drones were still in the air and air defence work continued.
Odesa
On the morning of 13 November, a Russian strike killed two people in Odesa and wounded five. The State Emergency Service said the strike destroyed a one-storey private house and started a fire, which rescuers quickly put out.
At another address, a strike hit open ground and damaged 11 cars.
Rivne
A Russian drone hit a multi-storey apartment block in Rivne. A fire broke out in two flats, and six people were wounded, including two children. At first five people were reported wounded, but the number later rose.
Oleksandr Koval, head of the regional military administration, said city authorities are arranging other housing for residents. Repairs and window fitting should start in the morning. Rescuers put out the fire and evacuated 42 residents. Work at the scene has finished.
Vinnytsia
The overnight attack on Vinnytsia damaged residential buildings and a kindergarten. Two women, aged 22 and 54, have minor injuries and were taken to hospital.
Nataliia Zabolotna, head of the regional military administration, said all fires have been put out and the damaged sites have been checked. Officials are still working out how much damage there is.
