Description

Russia has fired more than 800 missiles and drones at Ukraine, hitting the main government building in Kyiv - the first time in the war that a Ukrainian government headquarters has been directly hit. We speak to a Ukrainian MP and get reaction from the US.



Also on the programme: an Italian teenager has become the first millennial saint; and a total lunar eclipse has been taking place across the world, we'll hear from East Africa - one of the best places to see it.
