Quote from Fedorov: "Melitopol’s occupiers were awakened by explosions instead of alarm clocks. It was very loud in the southern part of the city at 05:00. Early reports indicate that part of the Refma plant, which has been occupied by the Russians and which housed one of their main headquarters, has been destroyed."
Details: Melitopol Mayor added that Russia’s losses are currently being confirmed.
