From Lately, 10:26 pm on 9 March 2022

Two million people have now fled war torn Ukraine and some of those not involved in the fighting fear they might still be specific targets of the Russian military. Last weekend three aid workers were killed outside Kyiv when their car was shot at. The family of one of the victims claims they were deliberately targeted by Russian forces. Local and foreign journalists have been also been fired at and some killed. Tetiana Pechonchyk is the head of the Ukrainian human rights group, Zmina. She fled the capital last week for the west of the country but says she still doesn't feel safe.
