Russia-Ukraine war: Ukraine’s ‘Harry Potter castle’ in Odesa hit in Russian missile attack| Oneindia
A Russian missile strike has claimed the lives of at least four individuals in the southern Ukrainian city of Odesa, targeting a Gothic-style building known locally as the "Harry Potter Castle''.
Even as night fell, the distinctive turrets of the structure continued to burn, with emergency services assessing the blaze as severe.
Reports indicate that residents were caught off guard, as air raid alerts sounded only minutes before the strike, leaving them with insufficient time to seek shelter.
Former US diplomat Victoria Nuland cautioned against sending Western instructors into Ukraine, despite severe troop shortages, to avoid escalating conflict with Russia. Nuland emphasized NATO's current extensive training of Ukrainian forces in member states. Estonia’s PM confirmed some NATO personnel are already training Ukrainian soldiers in Ukraine, while France, Estonia, and Lithuania support sending additional instructors or support troops.

The SBU disclosed thwarted plans to target Zelensky and other high-ranking officials. This follows previous attempts, including a 2023 arrest of a woman and a Polish man's alleged involvement. Zelensky also narrowly escaped a missile strike during a visit to Odessa.
