At night strong rain with hail was falling in Odesa oblast

Today at night strong rain with hail was falling on the coastal area of Odesa oblast. Some farmers report about the significant losses caused to their fields located near Odesa, Yuzhniy, Ilyichevsk. The plantings of vegetable crops were nearly fully destroyed in several farms. The scale of the damage is being specified; though, as to the available information, we can suppose that there was no hail in the areas, remote a little bit from the seacoast.
