What's it like being a Ukrainian journalist?

We hear the experiences of three Ukrainian journalists who have been reporting on the war.

It's been nearly two months since Russia started it's invasion of Ukraine. Since then journalists around the world have been extensively covering the story. But what has it been like for Ukrainian journalists reporting on a war happening in their own country? And what challenges have they faced whilst doing this? We speak to three journalists to hear their experiences.

Also, we go to South Africa where more than 440 people have died as devastating floods swept through the province of KwaZulu-Natal. We get the latest on the rescue efforts.

And Manchester United footballer Cristiano Ronaldo and partner Georgina Rodriguez have announced the death of their baby boy, saying it is the "greatest pain that any parents can feel". The couple were expecting twins. Their baby girl survived, and they said her birth "gives us the strength to live this moment with some hope and happiness". We hear from people who have gone through similar experiences.
