The all-clear was given at 18:33, ending the 42-minute alert. This incident occurred against the backdrop of Russian military attacks on Odesa, which took place overnight on February 12.

Attacks on Odesa

These overnight attacks on Odesa resulted in damage to civilian and infrastructure targets. Specifically, an infrastructure facility in one city district sustained significant damage, as did a local business center building. These strikes demonstrate the ongoing threat posed by Russian forces to regional security.

The situation with air raid alerts and shelling across Ukraine remains tense, indicating an intensification of military action by Russia. This causes significant concern among the civilian population, as attacks on critical infrastructure can have severe consequences for the economy and essential services in affected regions. Ukrainian government and military structures continue to implement measures to ensure public safety and defend the country's territory.
