Liverpool made a show of solidarity as it stands ready to support the people of Ukraine.
City councillors condemned the ongoing Russian invasion as a cross-party motion was backed unanimously at Liverpool Town Hall condemning the attacks that began last week.
The motion - put forward by leaders of the city's Labour, Liberal Democrat, Green and Liberal groups - said Liverpool again stands ready to offer its support and sanctuary to those in Ukraine fleeing war and called on the UK government to do more and offer sanctuary to Ukrainians in their hour of need.
