Hundreds in Mariupol waiting for evacuation

Mayor Vadym Boichenko says around 100,000 people are still in the besieged city.

We follow the developments in Mariupol as Ukrainian officials are making new efforts to get people out of the besieged city. President Putin has said the city has already fallen but ordered his troops not to storm the last remaining bastion of Ukraine’s resistance, the Azovstal steel plant, in the city. We have the latest from BBC Russian and BBC Ukrainian.

We also bring together three young Ukrainians whose university education has been interrupted by the war. They share experiences and explain how their lives have changed since the invasion began.

Israeli police have again clashed with Palestinians at Al Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem. We get more from our reporter in the city.

And in Myanmar, a protest movement against the military coup is now an armed uprising. We speak to our reporter who has gained rare access to the rebel jungle training camps and urban hide outs where young protesters are being turned into soldiers.
