For another day, Russia says it will hold fire, to allow safe passage for civilians from five cities. That's according to Russia's TASS news agency, quoting the defense ministry. Air-raid sirens blared in Kyiv. There were reports of explosions in surrounding areas. Residents of the suburb of Irpin, that's under Russian attack, have been trying to flee on foot.
During a ceasefire announced on Tuesday, thousands of civilians in the northern city of Sumy managed to leave by bus. Ukraine's government shared a video on this. Among the people evacuated were foreign nationals. But Ukraine claims Russian troops shelled the route leading away from the city of Mariupol.
Ukraine's army says it still continues to hold Kyiv despite attacks nearby. As the Russian invasion meets resistance, there are fears they could step up their attacks on civilian areas.
