Drone Attack in Odesa: A Dog Flees Amidst the Chaos
During an evening drone strike on the outskirts of Odesa, a dog breeding facility was damaged. A dog named Ichi escaped. The owner, Oksana Prokhorova, announced the search for him.
In a comment to Suspilne, Oksana shared her account of the frightening evening and confirmed that the lost dog has been found.
"The night was incredibly terrifying. The explosions were loud, windows shattered. Doors in the breeding facility were blown off... The biggest impact set the enclosure on fire, the dog ran away, but he was found in the morning," she noted.
One of the dogs from Orenburg experiences stress during shelling, so she stays with her owner in the bathroom during air alerts.
"There was a loud noise. My husband ran in and lay on us. At that moment, an explosion occurred," the woman recalled.
The escaped dog was in his kennel when the explosion occurred. He bolted out of fear:
"Luckily, he was in the kennel. We checked and found no blood — we will find him. All the dog owners tried to help search through the night, but only in the morning, when it got light, did we find him."
