Russia-Ukraine War: What to know as Russians advance on Kyiv
By The Associated Press
The Russian military assault on Ukraine went into its fifth day. A Ukrainian delegation held talks with Russian officials at the border with Belarus, though they ended with no reported agreements aside from plans for further talks. A Russian military convoy threatening Kyiv is far bigger than initially thought, with satellite images showing it occupying most of a 40-mile (64-kilometer) stretch of road north of the Ukrainian capital. Western sanctions triggered by the invasion sent the ruble plummeting, so ordinary Russians flocked to banks and ATMs to draw out cash. Ukrainian families huddled in underground subway stations for yet another night.
