The Russian military is not in control of most of Ukraine. But places across the country are coming under attack. And for the first time since the war began, Russian missiles hit deep into western Ukraine, only about 10 miles from the Polish border, and an hour from regional capital, Lviv. This vital corridor has been essential for getting refugees out, and supplies in. Most people at some point are passing through Lviv’s main train station. Andrew Connelly sends us this report from there.
