You and Yours

On Call You & Yours today we want to know - how is the situation in Ukraine affecting you and your loved ones? The United Nations says that over half a million Ukrainians have fled their homes to escape fighting in the country so far. The United Nations human rights chief, Michelle Bachelet, said millions of civilians were being forced to huddle in makeshift bomb shelters such as underground rail stations to escape explosions. This morning the world woke to news of satellite images revealed a huge convoy of Russian armoured vehicles around 40 miles long, advancing on Ukraine's capital Kyiv. Are you a Ukrainian living in the UK? Do you have family, friends or colleagues in the country? Are you listening to the news wondering what you can do to help people affected?
