Putin’s forces boasted they had swooped in with 200 helicopters and paratroopers to seize the location. Explosions were heard overnight as Moscow’s forces are now just 20 miles from the capital after yesterday’s full-scale invasion. Ukrainians have been warned they now face their “hardest day” with an expected all-out offensive by the Russians from the air, land and sea. Citizens were urged to take up arms, make up Molotov cocktail firebombs, and use commercial drones to defend their homes. Ukrainian forces fought fiercely – repelling a number of attacks as they pushed back against Putin’s forces. Pictures showed destroyed Russian vehicles littering the roadside, dead Russian soldiers, and captured Russian troops. And while there are question marks over the accuracy of Kyiv’s figures, UK intelligence agrees that Russia suffered heavy losses and made no meaningful gains on day one. US intelligence has warned the capital could fall within 96 hours as Russian forces move within just 20 miles after seizing nearby Chernobyl. The first day of fighting saw thousands fleeing across the borders in a bid to get to neighbouring Eastern European countries. At least 100,000 Ukrainians have fled the country with many heading towards Poland, Hungary, Slovakia, and Romania.
