Ukraine's Interior Ministry says Russia's 'invasion has begun' with missile strikes on Kyiv
Moscow Russian forces have begun an attack on Ukraine, with reports of troops crossing the border to the north and south, explosions in multiple cities including the capital Kyiv and Russian President Vladimir Putin warning of bloodshed unless Ukrainian forces lay down their arms.
Reports of military action came as world leaders attempted to avert catastrophe with a meeting of the United Nations Security Council amid warnings that a possible invasion could start the biggest war in Europe since 1945. The attack prompted immediate condemnation from the United States and its allies, which have threatened to enact"full scale" sanctions in response to Russian military aggression.
