May 2025 was no different from previous months: the same senseless terror against civilians by the occupying country, the destruction of civilian infrastructure and residential buildings, tears, pain and blood. War crimes by the Russian Federation against Ukraine and the Ukrainian people continue.

On the night of 1 May, the armed forces of the aggressor state carried out a large-scale drone attack on civilian infrastructure in Odesa.

A 16-storey building, a number of other apartment blocks and private homes, an educational institution, a supermarket and residents’ cars were damaged. We reported this in the previous report.
That same night, missile strikes destroyed the Tychenko farming enterprise in the Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi district of Odesa region. This was reported by the press service of the Ukrainian Agrarian Council.
According to the report, the farm’s machinery fleet was completely destroyed by the strike: tractors, seed drills and harvesting equipment. Warehouses also suffered major damage — roofs and storage bins were destroyed, making the facilities unusable.
“The scale of the destruction is enormous — practically no property survived. Everything we built over the years was destroyed in one night,” the agricultural enterprise said.
Preliminary estimates put the company’s total losses at more than UAH 60 million.
The agricultural enterprise cultivates 630 hectares of farmland and is one of the key producers in the region.
