Car bomb in Melitopol and comparing Churchill and Zelensky

Day 303. Today, we discuss the Russian destruction of the ruined theatre in Mariupol, look at the recent car bomb in Melitopol and compare Zelensky’s trip to Washington to Winston Churchill’s visit to the White House at the height of the second world war in December 1941.

Plus we hear from the charity Lumos about the work they are doing to help children in Ukraine.
