Ukrainian president's office says evacuations from an area where Russia announced a cease-fire have halted.
An analysis on what's next in the Russia-Ukraine conflict as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy asks Western allies to impose a no-fly zone over the country.
But Mariupol deputy mayor Serhiy Orlov later told the BBC that the Russians"continue to use hard artillery and rockets to bomb Mariupol. That's why people are very scared, but anyway they go to three specific points from which we will go to evacuate them by municipal buses." Diplomatic efforts continued as U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived in Poland to meet with the prime minister and foreign minister, a day after attending a NATO meeting in Brussels in which the alliance pledged to step up support for eastern flank members. Blinken would visit a border post to meet refugees later in the day.
Russia continues to crack down on independent media reporting on the war, also blocking Facebook and Twitter, and more outlets say they are pausing their work inside the country.
