The crisis meeting of Ukraine's National Security and Defence Council is now under way.
Addressing the council, President Petro Poroshenko described the Russian actions as "unprovoked and crazy".

Tension between Russia and Ukraine has been building for months off the coast of Crimea.
Under a 2003 treaty between Moscow and Kiev, the Kerch Straight and the Sea of Azov are shared territorial waters.
But recently, Russia began inspecting all vessels sailing to or from Ukrainian ports in the area.
The use of force by Russia to seize Ukrainian vessels - with casualties - is a major escalation.
But you won’t hear Moscow taking the blame.
Under President Vladimir Putin, when Russia has used force before, its line of defence has always been: "We didn’t start it."
That goes for the Russia-Georgia war of 2008, and the appearance of "Little Green Men" (Russian special forces) in Crimea in 2014, which preceded Moscow's annexation of the peninsula.
So expect Moscow to pin the blame for what happened on Sunday - and for whatever happens next - on President Petro Poroshenko’s government.
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin told a Ukrainian TV channel that "Russia has carried out an act of aggression against Ukraine."
He said he was in contact with "friends and partners" and they were drawing up a "clear sequence of actions we are going to take together".
"With this in mind, I talked today to both friends and the leadership of international organisations such as Nato and the EU. The president will shortly speak to the leadership of international organisations to build a clear-cut coalition to resist Russia's acts of aggression."
Nato spokesperson Oana Lungescu says the military alliance is "closely monitoring" developments in the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait.
"We call for restraint and de-escalation," she says.
"Nato fully supports Ukraine's sovereignty and its territorial integrity, including its navigational rights in its territorial waters. We call on Russia to ensure unhindered access to Ukrainian ports in the Azov Sea, in accordance with international law.
"At the Brussels Summit in July, Nato leaders expressed their support to Ukraine, and made clear that Russia's ongoing militarisation of Crimea, the Black Sea and the Azov Sea pose further threats to Ukraine's independence and undermines the stability of the broader region."
The EU says tensions have "increased dangerously", external as a result of the incident between Russia and Ukraine.
"We expect Russia to restore freedom of passage at the Kerch strait and urge all to act with utmost restraint to de-escalate the situation immediately," the EU says in a statement.
It says the construction of the Kerch bridge by Russia, under which a tanker is blocking passage through the strait, took place without Ukraine's consent and is "another violation of Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity".
"The European Union expects Russia to stop the inspections. The EU does not and will not recognise the illegal annexation of the Crimean peninsula by Russia," the statement adds.
The FSB also confirms that Russia's border patrol boats used weapons to force the Ukrainian ships to stop, Ria Novosti reports.
The FSB says three Ukrainian soldiers were injured.

Ukraine's National Security and Defence Council will convene to discuss the crisis at 24:00 local time (22:00 GMT), and will propose declaring martial law, council secretary Oleksandr Turchynov is quoted as saying by Ukrainian media.
In its latest statement, the Ukrainian navy says one of its gunboats and the tug have been seized and are being towed.
Another gunboat is blocked and is being escorted by "occupants". The vessel is not damaged.
The navy says that six Ukrainian service members were injured.
Russia's state news agency Tass has published these images of the Ukrainian boats which it says had illegally crossed into Russian waters.
