The attack on the Zelensky motorcade in Odessa/Details from the explosion, how

The motorcade of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, which was 150 meters away from the Greek delegation led by Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, was attacked by a Russian missile at 11:43 on Wednesday (6.3.2024). "There is no problem with the security of the prime minister and the Greek mission," official government sources said.

"We are all fine", the Minister of State Stavros Papastavrou, who is in the Greek mission, which was organized under extremely secretive conditions and which includes, in addition to the Prime Minister, 8 people and their security, told protothema.gr earlier .

The meeting between Kyriakos Mitsotakis and Volodymyr Zelenskiy took place as normal, while the two leaders will hold a press conference, which will not be broadcast live for security reasons.

Mr. Mitsotakis reiterated that Greece will continue to support Ukraine within its capacities and without weakening Greek defense power. At the same time, he emphasized that Greece supports Ukraine's European and Euro-Atlantic perspective.

At the same time, the two leaders visited a building complex hit by a Russian drone last Saturday, with a tragic death toll of 12, and laid flowers in memory of the victims.

The Greek Prime Minister arrived in Ukraine early in the morning, under conditions of extreme secrecy, with the intention of staying for a few hours, before going to Bucharest for the EPP Summit. He first visited a border station and then met with Zelensky at the port of Odessa.

Then sirens in Odessa began to sound, with the Ukrainian side talking about the launch of a Russian ballistic missile. According to local media, the attack was carried out by either an Iskander missile or an Onyx missile. Officially there is no announcement.

However, the Greek mission continued as normal.

The powerful explosion in Odessa happened shortly before the meeting of the Greek Prime Minister with the Ukrainian President. An air raid alert was immediately issued in the area./ CNA
