Drone footage shows Ukraine’s ‘Harry Potter castle’ in flames after Russian missile attack

Firefighters in the Ukrainian southern port city of Odesa battled a blaze in a private law academy following a Russian attack. The missile strike killed at least four people and injured 32 others after residential buildings and ‘civil infrastructure’ were hit. The law academy was situated in a Gothic-style building on the seafront and was known as the ‘Harry Potter castle’. Drone footage released by the Ukrainian armed forces show the building in flames.

On the frontline, Ukrainian officials say Russia is assembling forces for a major summer offensive, despite its troops making only incremental gains in recent months. The Nato chief, Jens Stoltenberg, says countries have failed to deliver military aid to Ukraine in time, benefiting Russia on the frontline

  9. Don't underestimate the explosive power of the Iskander missile, Iskander missiles never cause fires of that magnitude. not russia strike !
    If it were the real Iskander, it would have been difficult to recognize any traces of that building.

  10. Well if put military personnel/equipment in the place then what did you expect
    I guess we aren’t supposed to mention that part aye

  11. It was hit by a Ukrainian S300 or Buk air defence missile. The characteristic cubic steel shrapnel of the warhead was found at the scene.

  16. It reminds me of Notre Damm Cathedral buring which some say was deliberate but religiously and ethnically motivated.

  24. … Looks a real nice place to visit….. Wonder if it was being visited regularly by Nato/UK/US 'advisers' and 'Specialists'…? military looking stuff in background, and with its own dock for easy undetected comings and goings….. perhaps NOT such an innocent target?

  26. Honestly i don't believe anything now until all the evidence comes out never jump to conclusions look at the Israeli government nearly every single they have put out through the mainstream media has been a proven lie.

  37. The New York Times reported that in 8 days the Russians recaptured 12 settlements and more than 55 square kilometers of land… Ukrainians proudly flee to Lviv, and the Russians shamefully advance… The main thing is that Zelensky has limited the human rights of all Ukrainians – now it’s his personal slaves
