Air raid alerts were issued in the Dnepropetrovsk and Nikolaev regions, according to data from an official population-warning source. The alerts serve to inform residents and guide safety measures during ongoing tensions in the area.
In addition to these notices, the Odessa region also reported an air raid alert through the same authoritative channel. Ukrainian media outlets noted that explosions were heard in the city as residents were urged to seek shelter and follow official safety instructions.
During a meeting in Odessa on March 6, the Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky, and the Greek Prime Minister, Kyriakos Mitsotakis, observed heightened security conditions in the city as the situation unfolded. At that moment, local officials were focused on the event and port-area safety checks rather than sheltering procedures. The Russian Ministry of Defense later claimed that a missile attack targeted a hangar within Odessa’s industrial port district, asserting that unmanned boats intended for the Ukrainian forces were stored there.
The Odessa region’s air raid alert was broadcast at 10:41 local time (11:41 Moscow time). Citizens were advised to take shelter and follow official guidance. About an hour later, a second alert was issued, and authorities subsequently announced that the signal had been deactivated at 12:18 local time. This sequence reflects the ongoing, frequent use of regional alerts to coordinate protective actions amid intermittent threats.
Earlier reports indicated that explosions occurred in the Kharkov region, underscoring a broader pattern of elevated security alerts across multiple areas during this period. Official channels continue to provide situational updates to help residents understand evolving risks and to reinforce safety routines during such incidents.
