Ukraine has been rocked by a series of Russian missile strikes, just one day after the West offered to send tanks to the country.

The strikes have caused devastation in the capital city of Kyiv, with reports of extensive damage to energy infrastructure.

The West has responded by sending troops and tanks to Ukraine, in an effort to protect the country from further attacks.

Meanwhile, reports have emerged of the destruction of 1,600 tanks in Russia’s military arsenal. It is not yet clear how this will affect the country’s ability to launch further attacks.

The Ukrainian government has sounded country-wide alarms in response to the Russian strikes, and is preparing to begin Western tank training.

The situation remains tense, with the Ukrainian government calling on the international community to help protect the country from further attacks.
