Ukraine under attack
Russia's military launches an assault on several fronts; Nato says it was a pre-planned, cold-blooded invasion. A special report from our correspondent in the capital, Kyiv.

For 5 Minutes On, Nick Beake – the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Europe correspondent in Kyiv – reports on the extraordinary unfolding events – and the reaction of the people living in the city.
