Ukraine conflict: Deadly blast at Kyiv TV tower
Ukraine says Russia has attacked the main television tower in Kyiv
Ukraine says five people have died after Russia attacked a TV tower in Kyiv, hitting nearby broadcast facilities, and Ukraine’s second city Kharkiv has been hit by a Russian strike. We get updates from our correspondents on the ground and hear accounts of people witnessing the fighting.
The European parliament has given a standing ovation to Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelensky, as he told them by video link that his people would not be broken by Russia's invasion. He's called Russia's shelling of the city of Kharviv a war crime. We speak to our correspondent in the Hague where
the prosecutor at the International Criminal Court has said he plans to investigate Russia in connection with those alleged war crimes in Ukraine
We also hear from our reporters who have been speaking to Ukrainian refugees arriving in the neighbouring countries.
