Every week we wrap up the must-reads from our coverage of the Ukraine war, from news and features to analysis, visual guides and opinion.

The week started with the sound of explosions heard around the Ukrainian capital in the small hours of Sunday morning.

Dan Sabbagh reported on Russian cruise missiles striking a railway depot in the eastern Dniprovsky suburb of Kyiv. Ukraine said the strike hit a rail car repair works; Moscow said it had destroyed tanks sent by eastern European countries to Ukraine.

Tymoshenko, a leader of the 2004 Orange revolution and twice prime minister, had several one-on-one meetings with the Russian president. They held negotiations in 2009 after Putin, then prime minister, turned off the gas supply to Ukraine. Tymoshenko stood for president in 2010, 2014 and 2019, finishing second twice and then third.

In the city of Slavyanask, a one-time spa resort near Sievierodonetsk, a terrible battle draws near.

Sitting on a bench outside city hall, the deputy mayor, Yuriy Pidlisnyi, said he told residents to flee. About 25,000 people out of its population of about 100,000 had stubbornly ignored his advice, he said, as conditions inside the city get steadily worse.

There is no gas or water, and only intermittent electricity. With petrol expensive, many residents get around on bikes. Some who left have come back after running out of money. The local economy is trashed. Soldiers queue outside a market cafe to buy cost-price 60 Hryvnia (£1.80/$2.25) kebabs.

Heavy fighting has seen Russian forces concentrate their efforts on trying to surround and capture the eastern city of Sievierodonetsk, advancing at a rate of 500m to 1km a day, Dan Sabbagh reports.

Highlighting the importance of the fight for Sievierodonetsk, Zelenskiy on Sunday visited the beleaguered city of Lysychansk, just a few kilometres south.

The ruling was swiftly condemned by top British officials.
