Russia fired cruise missiles Thursday at a western Ukraine city far from the front line of the war, killing at least four people in an apartment building in what officials said was the heaviest attack on civilian areas of Lviv since the Kremlin’s forces invaded Ukraine last year. The nighttime attack destroyed the roof and the top two floors of a residential building, injuring 34 people. Emergency crews with search dogs went through the rubble.

All the latest developments from the war in Ukraine.
The Ukrainian capital Kyiv has been attacked from the air for the fourth time in a week by Russian missiles and drones. Parts of the south were also targetted. Ukrainian officials say up to 24 attack drones were used overnight, with 18 being shot down by it's air defence system. No injuries have been reported. It comes a day after Russia claimed that Ukraine had tried to assassinate the President Putin with drones targetting the Kremlin. FRANCE 24's correspondent Gulliver Cragg tells us more.
Smoke rises from the western Ukrainian city of Lviv after fresh Russian missile strikes. Writing on social media, the city's mayor, Andriy Sadovyi, has said "ninety percent of the city is without electricity" and warned of additional cuts in water supply. IMAGES
The extent of the damage is unclear. At least one death has been reported in the meantime.
