A "massive" Ukrainian drone and missile strike on Russia's port of Novorossiysk has damaged two major grain export terminals and hit the last big Russian naval base on the Black Sea, reports say.

Three people, including an eight-year-old child, were killed and another 24 injured in the overnight attack, local officials said.

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky said Kyiv had launched rockets, jet and naval drones in a "unique operation" to strike the Russian base, although he did not mention grain terminals being hit.

Ukraine's military later said four Russian warships, including two frigates, were hit. Russia has not commented on the issue.
