**Deck**: Russian attacks in Odesa Oblast destroyed food supermarket warehouses near Odesa city and sent around 20 Geran-2 drones against the Izmail Danube port area, putting local supply chains and river export routes under renewed strain.

Russian strikes in Odesa Oblast overnight hit both the region’s food supply chain and its Danube export corridor, according to regional and battlefield reporting.

The Odesa regional administration said Russian forces attacked warehouse premises belonging to a chain of food supermarkets. Ukrainian media reported that Silpo’s warehouses were targeted. The facilities were described as storage premises of a grocery supermarket network.

Geolocated information points to a logistics warehouse complex in the town of Usatove, northwest of Odesa city, being struck by Geran-4 jet drones. Coordinates given for the hit logistics complex are 46.57977, 30.56511. Another report from the same area, at 46.5796, 30.5638, said warehouses were completely destroyed in a strike.

These sites serve as distribution points, receiving goods and supplying stores across the region. Their destruction removes a key link between incoming supplies and supermarket shelves, at least until alternative routes and storage can be arranged.

At the same time, Russian forces targeted the Izmail port area in southern Odesa Oblast. Reporting says approximately 20 Geran-2 drones were used in the attack on Izmail, a key Danube River port. The Russian Ministry of Defence claims it struck port infrastructure used to unload and store materiel.

The extent and nature of damage in Izmail are not yet independently detailed. It’s unclear from current reporting whether the primary impact was on military-related facilities or civilian cargo infrastructure.

The combination of destroyed supermarket warehouses near Odesa and drone waves against Izmail keeps both regional food supplies and river trade routes under pressure. Watching how quickly Odesa’s supermarket network restores warehouse capacity, and whether Russia maintains this tempo of attacks on Danube ports, will indicate if this is a brief escalation or the start of a longer campaign against these targets.
