BBC World Service - Newshour, People returning to Kharkiv, says mayor

Russian soldiers tried for 11 weeks to encircle Ukraine's second largest city

The mayor of Kharkiv in north-eastern Ukraine has told the BBC that the battle for the city has been won and that people are starting to return. Ihor Terekhov said invading Russian troops had withdrawn towards the border. We speak to one Ukranian MP from the city who tells us what Kharkiv looks like now. 

Also in the programme: North Korea’s leader Kim Jong-un says the Covid outbreak is the greatest disaster his country has ever faced; and we go to the final of Eurovision to get a taste of the performances which have taken place.
