Turkey has decided to restrict navigation in the Black Sea due to ongoing attacks between Russia and Ukraine, Bloomberg reported.

The move comes amid rising tensions between the two countries after several days of mutual strikes.

Ukraine announced it had shot down 135 out of 151 drones and six ballistic missiles launched by Russia overnight. Three people, including a child, were killed and three others injured in Russian attacks in the Kyiv region.

Russia's Ministry of Defense said its armed forces carried out a large-scale overnight strike with high-precision missiles, targeting a military industrial facility and a fuel depot in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv as part of its ongoing military operation.
