..."While Moscow claims the Black Sea flagship sank after a fire led to an ammunition explosion, Ukraine has said that it targeted the ship using missiles.
Since Russia was forced to abandon an assault on the capital Kyiv at the end of March, its main force has been trying to encircle Ukrainian troops in the Donbas.
In Odesa in the south, firefighters battled blazes until the early hours of Tuesday after seven Russian missiles hit a shopping centre and depot on Monday. One person was killed and five people were injured, Ukraine’s armed forces said."
