She told about this on Espreso TV

"In fact, if there is a threat of the enemy using ballistic missiles, Odesa residents have one minute to take cover. However, last night the alert of danger was announced a few minutes before the attack. Therefore, people had the opportunity to take shelter. That is why there were not so many casualties," said Humeniuk.

According to her, Odesa residents have begun to be more attentive to air raid alerts.

"Unfortunately, the strikes that the enemy constantly inflicted on Odesa have become a lesson for locals. That is why people are going down to the shelters and have become much more attentive to air raid alerts," she added.

  • On the afternoon of March 25, the Russian army launched ballistic missiles at Ukraine from the south for the second time in a day. There were casualties and damage to civilian infrastructure in Odesa. Currently, 300,000 households in the city are without electricity.
