2023/12/29 16:06 GMT: Russian strikes hit cities across Ukraine

BBC World Service - BBC OS, Russian strikes hit cities across Ukraine

Ukraine's military says Russia launched a "massive" attack with 158 drones and missiles

Ukraine's military says Russia launched a "massive" attack with 158 drones and missiles.

Ukraine has been hit by possibly the worst wave of Russian bombardment since the full-scale invasion, involving more than 158 drones and missiles fired at targets across the country. At least 18 people have been killed. We speak to Ukrainians who were affected by the attacks.

The Manchester City player Jack Grealish’s house in the UK was burgled while he was playing a game on Wednesday. Media reports say a million pounds worth of jewellery and watches were stolen. We hear how robbers target footballers. 

We talk to our sports news reporter Alex Capstick about the biggest headlines in sport this year. 

The president of Burundi has said homosexuals should be stoned to death in public. We get reaction from Burundians.

Presenter: James Reynolds.
