BBC World Service - Newshour, Mariupol soldiers evacuated

Fighters were trapped for more than two months

Ukraine's military says it's working to evacuate all remaining troops from their last stronghold in Mariupol, after two-hundred and sixty-four defenders agreed to leave the Azovstal steel works and were taken to Russian-controlled territory.  We hear from an advisor to the Ukrainian defence ministry, and get the latest news on the ground. 

Also in the programme: a new exhibition on Feminine Power; and the global cost-of-living challenges.
