China’s consulate building in Odesa has been damaged in a Russian missile and drone attack, a Ukrainian official said.
The damage appeared to be minor, regional governor Oleh Kiper said as he posted a photograph showing the building with broken windows.
Russia, which is an ally of China, attacked the port cities of Odesa and Mykolaiv overnight for the third successive night.
“The aggressor is deliberately hitting the port infrastructure - administrative and residential buildings nearby were damaged, also the consulate of the People’s Republic of China. It shows the enemy does not pay attention to anything,” Kiper said on the Telegram messaging app.
It comes as the Russian military is preparing for possible attacks on civilian shipping vessels in the Black Sea, the White House warned.
Earlier this week, Russia suspended participation in a wartime deal allowing grain to flow from Ukraine to countries around the world.
Since quitting the Black Sea grain deal, Russia has already hit Ukraine‘s grain export ports in Odesa with missile and drone attacks, destroying some 54,400 tonnes of grain.
