Air raid alerts have sounded across southern and central Ukraine in response to the latest missile attacks by Russia - the fourth in eight days.

Residents of the Ukrainian capital Kyiv were told to head to shelters shortly before midnight local time. The mayor said five people had been injured.

The southern city of Odesa has also been targeted. Russia has stepped up its aerial attacks ahead of an expected offensive by Ukraine.

The boss of private military group, Wagner, has said Moscow has agreed to his demands for more ammunition - days after he threatened to withdraw his men from Bakhmut.
