Ukraine round-up: Missiles hit Kyiv and Putin warns West over arms

Russian cruise missiles slammed into parts of Kyiv early on Sunday - the first such strike on Ukraine's capital for weeks.

Russia claims it targeted a site storing tanks and other armoured vehicles supplied by eastern Europe. But Ukraine says the missiles hit a train repair plant where no tanks were held.

The last missile strike on the city was in late April, and life there had been getting back to some sort of normality.

Heavy fighting continues to rage in Severodonetsk, an industrial city in the Luhansk region of eastern Ukraine. Most of Luhansk is now under Russian occupation, but the Ukrainian army insists it can still push the Russians out of Severodonetsk.

President Vladimir Putin said efforts by Western countries to supply Ukraine with long-range missiles would not change anything on the battlefield.

In a Russian TV interview, he noted that Ukraine's current multiple-launch rocket systems (MLRS) were similar to Russia's systems. "There is nothing new here, and it does not change anything in essence," he said.

The US has pledged to supply Ukraine with Himars - a mobile high-precision MLRS that can hit targets up to 80km (50 miles) away. And the UK plans to send the M270, a bigger US-built system, which may similarly boost Ukrainian forces' firepower.

The Russian leader warned, however, against sending longer-range missiles to Ukraine.

'"If they are being supplied, we will draw the appropriate conclusions and use our weapons - of which we have enough - to strike targets we haven't yet hit."'
