BBC World Service - BBC OS, Ukraine takes back towns east of Kyiv

Despite this success for Ukraine, fighting is continuing across the country

Despite this success for Ukraine, fighting is continuing across the country.

As we continue our coverage of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, James Waterhouse in Kyiv tells us about Ukraine’s counter-attacks near the capital and about the situation in other cities, like Mariupol, where the fighting has continued.

We also go to Poland to talk about President Biden’s visit near the border, where many refugees have been arriving from Ukraine. 

Our Business Correspondent explains the significance of a major deal on liquified natural gas between the US and the EU, with the aim of reducing Europe’s reliance on Russian energy. 

And in other news, we hear from northern Ethiopia where a truce between rebel forces and government forces is allowing aid deliveries to millions of people in urgent need of assistance in the Tigray region.
