  • Dozens of civilians, including children, have been evacuated from the besieged Azovstal complex in the Ukrainian port city of Mariupol
  • G7 leaders will hold talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Sunday, says a German government spokeswoman.
  • US President Joe Biden says he is “open” to imposing more sanctions on Russia and would be discussing measures with allies from the G7 in the next few days.
  • Germany will deliver seven self-propelled howitzers to Ukraine, Defence Minister Christine Lambrecht has said, in a further reversal of a longtime policy not to send heavy weapons to war zones due to the country’s Nazi past.
  • Amnesty International says it has documented war crimes in Ukraine, including the “wilful killings of civilians” by Russian forces when they occupied an area northeast of Kyiv in February and March.
