On Sunday Russia launched an aerial assault on Ukraine’s capital Kyiv and the western region of Lviv.
Kyiv mayor Vitali Klitschko posted on Telegram, ‘Explosions in the capital. Air defence is working. Do not leave shelters’.
Lviv regional governor Maksym Kozytskyi said Stryi district, south of the city of Lviv, was also under attack.
The assault comes as Russia grieve for the tragic terrorist attack on Moscow concert hall and blames Ukraine for it.
However, four gunmen are among 11 people arrested in connection with the massacre at Crocus City Hall music venue in Krasnogorsk, near Moscow.
Russian President Vladimir Putin blamed Ukraine for the attack – prompting an angry response from Volodymyr Zelenskyy. But the men are from Tajikistan and an Afghan IS affiliate has already claimed responsibility.
