BBC World Service - BBC OS, Ukraine tells citizens to leave Russia

What does a state of emergency mean for Ukraine?

We dedicate the programme to the Ukraine-Russia crisis and bring you up to date with the latest developments.

Ukraine has urged citizens living in Russia to leave the country immediately, as a 30 day state of emergency is set to be declared in the country.

With two very different narratives reported about the crisis and the situation in eastern Ukraine, we explain how “Open Source” experts and our correspondents are trying to verify the locations of Russian military movements and reports of shelling.

People in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv share their reactions to this week’s developments with us and explain how their day-to-day lives are being impacted.

If Russia does decide to launch a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, many experts believe it will be preceded by a massive virtual attack. Our cyber security expert tells us more.

And we have been getting plenty of questions from around the world on the crisis. Our regional experts help us answer them.
