US President Joe Biden condemns wave of Russian missile strikes that killed at least 38 people in Ukraine.

 US President Joe Biden has condemned a wave of Russian missile strikes that killed at least 38 people in Ukraine as a horrific reminder of Russia’s brutality, as he vowed to strengthen Kyiv’s air defences.

At least 190 were injured across the country, including some at a children’s hospital in the capital Kyiv on Monday.

It comes as Mr Biden prepares to host a Nato summit in Washington today.

The US president said further boosts to Ukraine’s air defences would be announced at the meeting.

Leaders from the 32 Nato members states, their partner countries and the EU are gathering to mark the 75th anniversary of the bloc.

Mr Biden said he will be welcoming Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky and other Nato leaders.

The summit will focus on defence and deterrence in the context of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
