Shapps abandoned Ukraine port visit over Russian missile threat
Sunday, 17 March 2024 Grant Shapps was forced to abandon a visit to a port city in Ukraine after British intelligence warned of a credible missile threat from Russia.
A Russian ballistic missile attack hit a residential area in Ukraine's Black Sea port city of Odesa on Friday (March 15), killing at least 20 people and wounding more than 70, in Moscow's deadliest attack in weeks, Ukrainian officials said. Olivia Zollino reports.
In a significant advancement for Russian forces, the Russian Defense Ministry announced the liberation of Shakhtyorskoye and Novoukrainka in the Donetsk region by the elite 40th Separate Guards Marine Brigade. This milestone reflects Russia's aggressive push amid ongoing conflict. From October 26 to November 1, Russian forces launched a series of 44 precision strikes using high-tech weaponry and drones, targeting Ukraine’s power grid, military airfields, and railways supplying Western arms. Concurrently, Russian units report neutralizing over 250 Ukrainian troops and destroying critical artillery and vehicles in response to AFU incursions in Kursk, escalating a volatile regional standoff.

In a devastating escalation of hostilities, a Russian S-400 missile struck a police building in Kharkiv, Ukraine, on Friday, resulting in the tragic death of at least one officer and injuring dozens more. The attack has drawn condemnation and heightened fears of increasing violence in the region. According to the Ukrainian Interior Ministry, the strike killed a 43-year-old police colonel and left 30 police officers, one first responder, and nine civilians wounded, with some injuries reported as critical.
As investigations continue, the specifics of the targeted facility remain undisclosed, but regional authorities confirm significant collateral damage, including impacts on nearby residential areas. This missile strike marks a notable instance of Russia's alleged use of surface-to-air missiles for ground attacks, raising serious questions about the safety of civilian infrastructure amidst ongoing military operations.
