Ukraine and Russia, two years on

As the US announces another huge package of sanctions against Russia, Devina Gupta looks at how Ukraine and Russia are faring almost two years after the outbreak of war.

The United States has imposed fresh sanctions on Russia on the eve of the second anniversary of the invasion of Ukraine.

So what impact will they have? And how are Ukraine's people and its economy faring two years on?

Devina Gupta talks to Irina, a Ukrainian businesswoman who started a new life in the UK.

And she hears from an Ukrainian chicken producer about what it's like to keep going in a war zone.
