According to a pro-Russian military analysis channel, Ukraine's air defense systems did not intercept any of the Russian missiles launched in last night's attack on Odesa, including Iskander-M ballistic, P-800 Onyx anti-ship, and Kh-31P anti-radar missiles. The channel reports that only drones and Ukrainian-made 'Banderol' loitering munitions were intercepted, and that Ukraine admitted to direct hits in at least 22 locations with additional debris damage in six more.
Last night, Russia launched a major missile attack on Odesa, targeting the city with a variety of missile types, according to a pro-Russian military analysis channel. The channel claims that Ukrainian air defense systems failed to intercept any of the incoming missiles, including Iskander-M ballistic missiles, P-800 Onyx supersonic anti-ship missiles, and Kh-31P anti-radar missiles. The report states that Ukraine admitted to direct hits in at least 22 locations, with additional damage from falling debris in another six, and that only drones and Ukrainian-made 'Banderol' loitering munitions were intercepted.
The Zioneer has previously reported on Ukraine's declining air defense capabilities. In July, the Wall Street Journal reported that Ukraine's Patriot missile stockpile was nearly depleted, and Ukraine failed to intercept any of 23 ballistic missiles in a prior attack. The Ukrainian Air Force later confirmed zero interceptions during an overnight attack in August 2025 due to Patriot shortages.
The claims from this latest attack cannot be independently verified. The source is a single pro-Russian channel, and official Ukrainian or Russian confirmation has not yet been released. The attack appears to be part of Russia's continued campaign against Ukrainian port cities and infrastructure.
