Ukraine on high alert after Russian airstrikes

The Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, was hit by a wave of Russian airstrikes in the early hours of Sunday morning. There have also been reports of loud explosions in the western region of Lviv, near the country's border with Poland.

Also in the programme: the host of the BBC's Dear Daughter podcast, Namulanta Kombo, discusses the recent episode, called Making amends, with her father; and in Canada, scientists have found a new population of orcas or killer whales.

Joining presenter Julian Worricker are Atika Rehman, a London correspondent for Pakistan's Dawn Newspaper and deputy editor of an environmental NGO, The Third Pole, and Travis Elborough, an author and commentator with a focus on maps, travel, busses and vinyl records.
