Russian strikes on Odesa kill one, wound at least 13
ODESA: One person was killed and more than a dozen others were wounded in Russia's latest aerial attack on Ukraine, which targeted the southern port city of Odesa, officials said on Friday. Emergency services published images of firefighters helping a woman in pyjamas climb from the window of a housing block in flames. Both Moscow and Kyiv have stepped up their drone and missile attacks after three years of war and peace talks initiated by the United States appear closer to collapse. Ukrainian police said one person was killed and 13 were wounded in Odesa, including three rescue workers who were hurt at the scene of the attack. 'Residential buildings, higher education institutions, civilian infrastructure and transport were damaged by the strike,' said Oleg Kiper, the governor of the Black Sea region. The Ukrainian air force said Russia had launched 86 drones in the barrage and that 70 had been downed by air defense systems. The Russian defense ministry, meanwhile, said its forces had eliminated at least 61 Ukrainian drones. Odesa, one of Ukraine's largest port cities and a UNESCO heritage site, has been under persistent Russian attacks since Moscow invaded its neighbor early in 2022.

Russian attacks kill elderly man and woman in Kherson, Ukraine says
KYIV, May 19 (Reuters) - A man and woman in their seventies were killed in separate Russian attacks on the southern Ukrainian region of Kherson, police and regional officials said on Monday. A 75-year-old woman was killed and two people were wounded in shelling late on Sunday of a central area of Kherson, the region's main city, local authorities and police said on the Telegram messaging app. A 76-year-old man was killed in a drone attack on Monday morning on a residential area of the Kakhovka district of Kherson on the Dnipro River, the police said. Photographs posted by the police on Telegram showed devastated buildings and vehicles after the attacks, which they said had damaged two apartment buildings, 17 private houses and a factory, among other infrastructure. Russia, which began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, did not immediately comment on the reports. It carried out its largest drone attack of the war on Sunday. U.S. President Donald Trump is set to speak to Russian President Vladimir Putin later on Monday as the White House steps up efforts to end Russia's war in Ukraine.
