Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko announces a 35-hour curfew for people in the capital, warning “today is a difficult and dangerous moment”
It comes after Russian air strikes hit residential buildings and a metro station overnight.
Two people were killed in an attack on an apartment block in the city, emergency services say.
Meanwhile, negotiations between Russian and Ukrainian representatives are set to resume.
There are a number of fire trucks, but it will take time to put out the fires because almost every single flat was damaged.
It’s quite close to the area where the fighting is going on. There are reports that Russian forces are about 10 to 15km away.
There has been a lot of speculation about whether the Russian troops would be willing to bomb Kyiv.
The capital of Ukraine, has symbolic value for them, as well, with all those orthodox churches and historical sites.
However, sights like this suggest that Russian troops are ready to use brutal force in order to take Kyiv.
