Distress and destruction all over Ukraine

More than 70 Ukrainian servicemen were killed by a Russian rocket attack and dozens of civilians have died in "barbaric" shelling, Ukrainian authorities said on Tuesday, as a huge Russian military convoy approached the capital Kyiv.

Fierce resistance on the ground has so far denied Russian president Vladimir Putin decisive early gains after he last week launched the biggest assault on a European state since World War Two.
