Russian warships on Wednesday night launched missiles and artillery at the Ukrainian sea coast near Tuzla, a village to the south of Odesa, a top Ukrainian official said.

“They fired a huge amount of ammunition from a great distance,” Anton Gerashchenko, a former deputy minister at the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs, confirmed in a statement on Facebook.
