The Russian Defence Ministry said four of the US delivered missiles were shot down by air-defence systems and the ammunition of a fifth detonated in mid-air.
The ministry said Ukraine struck "the civilian infrastructure of the city of Sevastopol with ATACMS tactical missiles supplied by the United States and equipped with cluster warheads".
About 100 people were injured by falling shrapnel, Mikhail Razvozhayev, the Russian-installed governor of Sevastopol, said via his Telegram channel.
