A Ukrainian military plane carrying 14 people crashes in Kyiv, killing five people.

A Ukrainian military plane carrying up to 14 people has crashed in the midst of a Russian military offensive. According to AFP, the plane crashed near the Ukrainian city of Kyiv, citing Ukrainian emergency services.

So far, almost 40 people have been killed in Ukraine by Russian military. A Russian plane was shot down over the Luhansk Region, according to the Ukraine Army.

Russia has also stated that it has destroyed military infrastructure at Ukraine's air bases in order to'suppress' the country's air defences.

Meanwhile, after President Vladimir Putin declared war on Ukraine, Russia has taken control of two villages in Ukraine's east.

In a televised speech prior to the invasion, Putin urged Ukrainian soldiers to lay down their arms and return home. He described conflicts between Russian and Ukrainian forces as "inevitable," adding that the special military activity was "aimed at demilitarising and denazifying Ukraine."
