Russian aerial bombardment intensified last night with Kharkiv, Ukraine's second largest city, being particularly hard hit.

According to the Portuguese newspaper Negócios, the mayor, Ihor Terekhov, said that several residential areas were under attack in what he called "a war to destroy the Ukrainian people.

This Tuesday, the foreign ministers of Germany, France, and Poland will meet in the Polish city of Lodz to try to find a way to stop the Russian attack, as the economic sanctions being applied by several Western countries and companies seem to be having little effect on the ground.

Also NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson will travel separately to Poland and then Estonia.
