You call it bomb shelter but most of the places where people hide, they are not really bomb shelters, they are just the basements of the building so they are not very well prepared for any kind of bomb shelling. so if the missile hits directly this building, it will not stop. and it will be a trap but at least it will protect from some tiny explosions. i dont think there is a safe place since putin invaded. yes, its very scary but we have to understand like what happened because we are in the de...

They have inflicted on us in the last four days. >> vladimir putin has included nuclear weapons on high alert. do you see this as a credible nuclear threat, or is it a bluff to putting pressure on ukraine ahead of these talks? >> you know, after the full-fledged invasion and after four days living in basements and all of our people, not only military forces, but our farmers and bread growers and business analysts, putins unrest and taking arms to our country, from this attack its difficult to an...

The west towards poland because bombs started to fall here, rockets started to fall in the hours before dawn. i think this speaks to two things, really. it spoke to how people here didnt believe this is going to happen. they didnt think russia would attack ukraine. they saw their ties with russia as to close and they didnt think a full-scale invasion would happen. it also speaks to a failure on the part of the political leadership here, the failure to prepare the people for what could happen and...

Another barrage before dawn. ukrainian anti—aircraft batteries intercepting a russian missile over the capital, one of two shot down this morning. as the assault closes in on kyiv, 2.5 million civilians are suddenly on the front line. firefighters in one suburb struggled to put out the blaze. russia says it is not targeting civilians, but this is what happens when you fire missiles at a capital city. for many, it was the second night of cowering in basements and bomb shelters, doing whatever i...

City now until 8am on monday. life in the city is going underground, taking to basements, bomb shelters. no metro system is now a 24—hour refuge. i think the message from the ukrainian leadership is that as difficult as it has been so far, it is good to get a whole lot more difficult, if not harder, as russian forces continue to try to push into the centre of kyiv. ukraines president zelensky, has urged all citizens, to resist the russian invasion of their country. and as our eastern europe co...
