A Ukrainian air strike in the Russian-annexed Crimea peninsula has killed five people and sent beachgoers running for their lives. The incident occurred in the Black Sea port city of Sevastopol. Officials report that Ukraine's military fired ballistic missiles with cluster munitions. Russian air defences shot down four of them, while a fifth exploded over the city after being hit. Sevastopol's governor confirmed that 124 people were injured. The Russian defence ministry stated that US specialists had set the ATACMS missiles' flight coordinates based on information from US spy satellites, implicating Washington as directly responsible.
