Ukraine issues 'stay away' warning to Russians planning holiday in tourist spot
Russian tourists have been warned by Ukraine that they could lose their lives if they visit a popular holiday spot.
The Ukrainian defence ministry says holidaymakers will be at the mercy of missile and drone strikes if they head to Crimea, which is part of the Black Sea peninsula annexed by Russia.
A new video targeted at vacationing Russians tells them: “Big plans this summer?
“A travel advisory is in effect for certain beaches.
“We warned you last summer to stay away from Crimea.”
