Russia launched massive strikes on Odesa and Mykolaiv: there are casualties and power outages

According to glavcom.ua: Russian ballistic missiles and drones once again attacked Ukraine, reported the head of the Odesa Oblast Military Administration Oleg Kiper. The attack was aimed at the port infrastructure in the Odesa region and had dire consequences: seven people were killed, fifteen were injured. All the victims were taken to the hospital. At the same time, on the night of December 20, Russian troops struck Mykolaiv and the region using drones, causing serious problems with electricity supply. Mykolaiv mayor Oleksandr Senkevych reported on this attack by the military, which spread beyond the city.

Additionally, on December 20, drones attacked the Bryansk region, damaging the town of Novozybkov. Most likely, this attack violates the storage of weapons and could lead to ammunition explosions. Another important news: the head of the US Pentagon, Pete Gage, announced the start of a military operation called 'Hawk Strike' in Syria aimed at destroying ISIS fighters and their structure. President Donald Trump calls this step a response to the death of American servicemen and a translator in Syria.

The US Department of Justice has released documents concerning Jeffrey Epstein. Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's associate, is also mentioned in these materials. Finally, the US representative to NATO, Matthew Whitaker, noted that the cessation of hostilities in Ukraine is the best option for both Ukraine and Russia, as the continuation of the war will lead to waste of resources.
