Ukraine invasion - Putin launches fresh blitz with Kyiv under siege and scores of people killed

THE Ukrainian capital could fall within a matter of hours as Russian troops surround it, experts fear.

Kyiv - a thoroughly modern European city of nearly 3 million people - is bracing itself for gunfights on its streets before the end of the day as Vladimir Putin's forces gather on multiple sides of the city.

Yesterday Ukraine revealed it had provided over 100,000 weapons to locals willing to fight in resistance units against the Russian troops.

But even with the Ukrainian army supported by such street-fighting units, they are unlikely to outmatch Putin's army - one of the best trained and equipped in the world.

Ukraine this morning confirmed that Russia lost at least 800 troops on the first day of invasion.

RUSSIAN forces have reportedly reached the edge of Kyiv as civilians were urged to take up arms and make Molotov cocktails to fight back against Vladimir Putin.

Ukrainian defence officials said "the enemy" were in the neighbourhood of Obolon - which is around five and a half miles north of the city centre.
