Ukraine said Monday that a Russian missile hit a civilian Palau-flagged ship in the port of Odesa, killing one person onboard in what it said was the second such attack in recent days.

"The enemy hit a civilian ship flying the Palauan flag with a ballistic missile," Oleg Kiper, the head of the Odesa region, said. "A 60-year-old Ukrainian, an employee of a private cargo handling company, was killed. Five other foreign nationals were injured... This is the second attack on a civilian vessel in Odesa region ports in the last few days."
