Nearly 400 people have been evacuated after a Russian strike on a warehouse near Kyiv killed at least 37 people, Ukrainian authorities have said.

Videos showing the moment of a huge explosion and the plumes of smoke that followed have been shared online.

The strike hit a depot storing weapons for Ukraine's military near a residential area.

An investigation into the "terrible negligence on the part of those who stored explosive right next to people" has begun, President Volodymyr Zelensky said.
