Hello and welcome to NewsHour.
It's coming to you live from the BBC World Service Studios in London.
I'm Tim Franks.
Today on the programme a Ukrainian soprano tells us that the Russian missile bombardment won't stop her from singing and chill,
prove it to a son air.
The UN Human Rights Chief has said that the situation in Sudan is a stain on the record of the international community.
I've been hearing from Volker Tuuk.
And we'll also be speaking to the coach of the Faroe Islands football team that have gone from minnows to master predators.
They even have a chance at qualifying for the World Cup.
Talking about transitions.
From wolf to chihuahua.

We're beginning, though, with a much more dread sound,
the sound of another night in the Ukrainian capital.
The sound of outgoing fire in Kiev,
Ukrainian air defenses trying to beat back a vast wave of Russian drones and missiles,
and as so often happens, those defenses have not been impregnable.
Six people are reported to have been killed and dozens injured,
children and a pregnant woman among them.
