Multiple explosions across Ukraine

There have been multiple explosions in Ukraine across the country, including in the capital Kyiv.

The attacks come two days after the only bridge linking Russia with occupied Crimea was damaged in a blast.

Since then, multiple missiles have been fired into Ukrainian territory. At least 75 missiles have been fired during the wave of attacks, says Ukraine's military chief.

Journalist Sergio Olmos was at the site of a blast in Kyiv. He told Newsday, "I woke up and heard the sound of what I thought was an aeroplane, looked out the window, and heard the first explosion. I went out, saw kids running for shelter. There's a school nearby, people were frantic, and then there was a second explosion.".
