As African leaders arrive in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv to meet with Zelensky, an air raid alert was issued in the city and the region.
The alert came after the Ukrainian air force said several Russian Kalibr missiles had been launched from the Black Sea and were "heading north" towards Kyiv.
Russian missile attacks ramped up this week on Kyiv, Odesa, and President Zelensky’s hometown of Kryvyi Rih, killing several people.
Olexander Scherba, a Ukrainian diplomat has tweeted: "Sirens now. Putin welcoming African leaders in Kyiv."
