Civilians under siege in Ukraine

The World

For many tens of thousands of Ukrainians, daily life is about just staying alive. The Russian military is stepping up its attacks on residential areas of besieged cities. People just trying to get out of the way of Russian shelling and missile strikes have been killed. Today, Russian and Ukrainian authorities appeared to take steps toward setting up safe corridors for civilians to evacuate from six cities in the east and south of Ukraine. Host Marco Werman speaks with reporter Jessica Golloher in Lviv.
