Greek newspaper Proto Thema says a Russian missile strike landed near Volodymyr Zelensky's motorcade in the Black Sea port city of Odessa, where the Ukrainian President was meeting with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.
A car carrying Mitsotakis was 150 meters away from Zelensky's convoy. State Minister Stavros Papastavrou said there were no casualties among the Greek delegation due to the strike. Rocket sirens sounded in the area.
The meeting between the President of Ukraine and the Prime Minister of Greece proceeded as usual. A press conference is expected to be held afterward. For security reasons, the event will not be broadcast live.
Politicians laid flowers at the building destroyed by the Russian strike on March 2. The bombing resulted in the deaths of 12 people, including several children.
Earlier, Zelensky mentioned that he had survived at least five or six assassination attempts at the beginning of the Russian invasion. "The first one is exciting; after that, it is just like Covid," he said.
