A BATTERED and bloodied man makes a call after a missile strike on a Ukrainian apartment block in which at least 11 died.

According to British intelligence, a unified registry of individuals eligible for military service will be digitally linked to other government services.
This move will allow Russian authorities to punish draft-dodgers by automatically limiting employment rights and restricting foreign travel.
Meanwhile, 52,000 young Russian men already have received draft orders as part of the country's regular spring call-up, said Col. Andrey Biryukov on Saturday.
21,000 of those men were said to have qualified for military service.
Biryukov addressed concerns that the new electronic conscription law presaged a broader mobilization of reservists, like one Putin ordered in September.
"I'd like to stress that all army deferrals for citizens will still be valid.
"And e-draft orders will not be mailed in bulk."
