Eighth wave of Russian missile attacks
By Paul Adams, diplomatic correspondent and Ben TobiasRussia has fired a barrage of missiles at targets across Ukraine for the eighth time in eight weeks.
Ukraine says it shot down 60 of the 70 missiles fired by Russia. Moscow says it hit all 17 of its targets. Three servicemen were killed and two aircraft were lightly damaged in the explosions, Russia's defence ministry said. Ukraine has yet to comment.For Ukraine's hard-pressed electrical engineers, Monday's missile strikes are likely to mean another round of emergency repairs, often to facilities hit repeatedly in recent weeks.
Another striking feature of the latest Russian strikes is the apparent absence of Iranian-made "kamikaze" drones.
