Ukrainian presidential adviser Oleksiy Arestovych has offered his resignation after suggesting a Russian missile which hit a building in Dnipro, killing 44 people, was shot down by Kyiv. Mr Arestovych apologised and said he had made a “fundamental error”. The original remark caused widespread anger in the country, and was used by Russian officials to blame Ukraine.
