Ukraine reports deaths as Russia convoy advances

A huge convoy of Russian armour, about 40 miles long, is advancing on Ukraine's capital Kyiv, satellite images show

MARCH 1: At least 70 soldiers were killed in a Russian artillery strike, Ukrainian officials have confirmed. Emergency workers are sifting through rubble trying to find survivors.

The regional centre of Kherson is now surrounded by Russian troops, say reports, with soldiers and military equipment reportedly "on all sides".

The Russian army is steadily continuing its advance on Kyiv, with satellite images showing an armoured convoy that is about 40 miles (65km) long.

Dozens of civilians were killed earlier on Monday in Russian missile strikes on Ukraine's second-largest city, Kharkiv.

Ukraine's government has said it plans to sell war bonds to pay for its armed forces.
