Russia says that all the targets assigned by its military in an overnight missile barrage on Ukraine had been hit, after Kyiv announced it had downed nearly 20 Russian missiles.
The defense ministry in Moscow says long-range precision-strike missiles had targeted storage facilities hosting “ammunition, weapons and military equipment supplied by Western countries,” adding that “all assigned targets have been hit.”
