Ukraine claimed Sunday to have hit two Russian military ships stationed at the annexed peninsula of Crimea in overnight strikes, as it suffered another night of 'massive' Russian aerial attacks.

Ukraine claimed Sunday to have hit two Russian military ships stationed at the annexed peninsula of Crimea in overnight strikes, as it suffered another night of "massive" Russian aerial attacks.

Moscow-installed officials on the peninsula, which Russia seized in 2014, said their forces had repelled a major Ukrainian aerial attack late Saturday night. Ukraine has claimed to have destroyed around a third of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet since the start of the war, usually in attacks at night using sea-based drones packed with explosives.

Russia has also resumed targeting Kyiv, carrying out its first strikes at the city since early February. “Polish airspace was breached by one of the cruise missiles fired in the night by the air forces… of the Russian Federation,” the army posted on X. Moscow claimed Saturday to have seized a village on the western outskirts of Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine.

A former Minister of State for Defence, Sen. Musiliu Obanikoro, has condemned the killing of 17 officers of the Nigerian Army in Delta, describing the incident as very sad and unfortunate.
