Ukraine: Russian bombing of cities continues

As Russia's invasion of Ukraine reaches its 12th day, we continue our special coverage of what's happening across the country. We'll bring you the latest on what's going on, speak to our correspondents on the ground, answer listener questions, and hear the voices of the people at the heart of the story.

We'll hear a conversation with people in the southeastern city of Mariupol, which has been under siege by Russian forces. The city has been the target of intense shelling and people there are running out of food. After two ceasefires broke down, we'll hear how people with family in the city are feeling.

Also we'll continue to follow the story of one Ukrainian woman who has been trying to escape from the country. We've been hearing from her for a week and today will hear the next part of her audio diary.
