#Russia #BBCNews
Russia's President Vladimir Putin told Moscow's Victory Day parade that the world is at a "turning point", with a "real war" being waged against Russia.

Putin once again sought to link Russia’s invasion of Ukraine with the struggle against Nazism during World War Two.

Hours before the Victory Day celebrations began, Russia launched a fresh wave of air strikes on Ukraine, with Kyiv saying 23 of the 25 cruise missiles fired were destroyed.

Most were aimed at the capital, which came under attack for the fifth time this month.
