Kiev claims to have killed the commander of the Russian Black Sea Fleet during a strike on Friday in annexed Crimea.

On Sunday night, Russia launched a major missile and drone attack against the Ukrainian city of Odessa. Kiev forces say they shot down 19 of the 21 weapons used in this action, but even so there is serious damage to the port area and to a hotel.

The body of the second person killed as a result of a night attack by Russian terrorists on Odessa was found under the rubble, said the head of the Odessa Regional Military Administration.

The port's hotel, which has not been in operation for years, the hidden headquarters of the Ukrainian Navy, also caught fire.
