BBC World Service - Newsday, Evacuation attempt in Ukrainian city Mariupol collapses

An attempt to evacuate large numbers of people from the city collapsed for a second day.

An attempt to evacuate large numbers of people from the city collapsed for a second day on Sunday.

Before the full invasion of Ukraine, Mariupol was a city of about 400,000 inhabitants. An attempt to evacuate large numbers of people from the city collapsed again on Sunday, we'll be looking into why this happened.

Meanwhile, Russian state media say the government is proposing new humanitarian corridors for civilians fleeing fighting in Ukraine, after Kiev rejected the previous plan as unacceptable.

Also, we'll have the latest as we head to another city in the spotlight, Mariupol, which remains under siege. We'll hear from a resident there.
