Death Toll Rises to Four Following Russian Attack on Odesa on March 28: Injured Man Dies in Hospital

On April 3, 2023, a 79-year-old man died in a hospital in Odesa after suffering severe injuries from a Russian drone attack on the city on March 28. This tragic event has led to an increase in the death toll to four individuals.

Serhiy Lysak, the head of the Odesa City Military Administration, reported that the elderly resident of Odesa passed away in the hospital after undergoing treatment for his injuries. Unfortunately, his body could not withstand the consequences of the severe wounds he had sustained.

Lysak expressed his condolences to the family and friends of the deceased, emphasizing that each loss is a significant tragedy for society. He urged everyone to remember the victims of this horrific attack and to support one another during this challenging time.

It is important to recall that in the early hours of March 28, Russian forces launched a massive attack on Odesa, deploying over 60 strike drones. This assault has been one of the most extensive in recent times, and its aftermath has proven catastrophic for the local population.

Following this attack, on March 31, it was reported that a 76-year-old man also died in Odesa from severe injuries inflicted by the Russian drones. Consequently, the death toll from this dreadful attack rose to three, and now, with the passing of the 79-year-old man, it has reached four.

This situation once again underscores the devastating consequences of the war waged by Russia against Ukraine. People continue to suffer from the effects of aggression, and each new case of death or injury brings profound pain to the hearts of those who remain.

The authorities in Odesa continue to work on ensuring the safety of residents and providing assistance to those affected. However, despite all efforts, the situation remains critical, and each new day brings fresh challenges and difficulties for the city's inhabitants.

In light of this, it is crucial for the international community to continue supporting Ukraine in its struggle for freedom and independence, as well as to take measures to hold accountable those responsible for these crimes against humanity.
