BBC World Service - BBC OS, Russia launches Ukraine invasion

We bring explainers, reaction and reports of today's developments in Ukraine

We bring explainers, reaction and reports of today's developments in Ukraine.

Russia has launched a major military assault on Ukraine. We bring explainers, reports from the frontline, analysis and reaction throughout our special coverage of today’s events. 

Many frightened Ukrainians woke up this morning to sounds of explosions and news alerts. We speak to people about their experiences and hear from those who are trying to leave cities and from others who have decided to stay put. 

We find out how the BBC’s disinformation unit are verifying videos and different claims about the situation on the ground. 

We speak to our colleagues in Moscow about how the story is being covered by Russian media, and what people are saying on social media.
