Ukraine: Russia attacks new cities

Lutsk and Ivano-Frankivsk have been targeted, with Dnipro struck for the first time

We are continuing our coverage of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The Ukrainian cities of Lutsk and Ivano-Frankivsk have now been targeted, with Dnipro struck for the first time since the Russian invasion began. We will be hearing the thoughts of people in Dnipro, which some experts thought may largely avoid conflict, after airstrikes hit their city.

The US President Joe Biden has also announced more restrictions on trade with Russia, including a ban on imports of Russian vodka and diamonds. We speak to the BBC's correspondents about the international response to the ongoing invasion, as well as the latest on what's happening on the ground in Ukraine. We'll also put questions to them from our audience.

We'll hear a conversation between three Russians from abroad who share a feeling of shame over the Russian invasion and fear that anti-Russian sentiment across the world is rising.

And as the world's focus is on the war in Ukraine, we’ll look at what's been happening in other conflict zones, such as Syria, Yemen, and Afghanistan. We’ll discuss whether conflict outside of Europe is viewed differently by the international community.
