Officials in the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv have imposed a 35-hour curfew as Russian air strikes on the city continue. At least five people have been killed in the latest bombardment, amid indications that Russia has shifted its focus to targeting residential areas and civilian infrastructure in the besieged city. There have also been further air strikes on the city of Kharkiv, while Fox News has advised that two of its employees – a producer and a cameraman – have been killed in an air strike near Kyiv. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has conceded that his country will not become a member of the NATO defence pact. He has also warned that the Russian "war machine" will inevitably target more countries if it is not stopped.
