Deadly Russian Strike Rattles President Zelensky and Greek PM Mitsotakis During Odesa Visit
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Ukraine, a Russian attack on the port city of Odesa killed at least
five people, according to the Ukrainian Navy. The strike came as
President Volodymyr Zelensky was taking Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos
Mitsotakis on a tour of the war-ravaged city, where 12 people, including
children, were killed in a drone attack last week. The Greek prime
minister spoke after Wednesday's attack, which the two leaders heard as
they were getting into their cars following the tour.

Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis: "And I think this is one more reason
why all European leaders should come to Ukraine, because it is one thing
to see, to hear the description from the mass media or from President
Zelensky, with whom we regularly communicate, and it is completely
different to experience the war firsthand."
