Wales “has a part to play” and can expect to take in those fleeing Putin’s brutal invasion of Ukraine, First Minister Mark Drakeford has said.
He was speaking as Russian forces reached the capital Kyiv on February 25. At least 194 Ukrainians, including 57 civilians, have been killed across country since Putin's troops launched air, land and sea strikes less than 48 hours ago.
Ukraine's defence ministry says more than 1,000 Russian troops have been killed. On an island in the Black Sea, 13 border guards refused to surrender to a Russian warship and were massacred, it has been reported.
