A protest in support of Ukraine has been planned in Bristol tomorrow. The "Stand with Ukraine" protest will take place at College Green from midday. It has already interested more than one hundred people, with more than half of those confirming their attendance via the Facebook event page.
It follows Russian troops closing in as Ukraine says at least 137 civilians and soldiers were killed yesterday - the first day of the invasion - as residents are being told to take shelter in bunkers.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky delivered a national address this morning (February 25) where he confirmed multiple Russian strikes hit the capital as well as other parts of the country early today. He said: "We have information that enemy sabotage groups have entered Kyiv. Therefore, I urge Kyiv residents to be careful and follow the curfew rules."
