Ukraine: New curfew in Kyiv
The mayor of Kyiv says a 35-hour curfew will be imposed from this evening
The war in Ukraine is getting closer to the capital Kyiv where a 35-hour curfew will be imposed tonight. Our correspondents and specialists bring updates on the fighting and evacuations across the country.
And after a journalist in Moscow was arrested after interrupting Russian state TV with a “no war” sign, we discuss media crackdown in Russia and hear about journalists who have decided to leave.
We run the second part of our conversation with three people in Kyiv sharing their experiences of the invasion and explaining why they have decided to stay in the city.
And while much of the world is focussing on the war in Ukraine, there are reports that after eight years of fighting, the war in Yemen is escalating. Our colleague from BBC Arabic explains the recent developments.
