February 24, 2022: Russia invades Ukraine, George Floyd jury, Breonna Taylor trial, Florida House vote on LGBTQ bill

1. Russian forces invaded Ukraine in a massed assault by land, sea and air, the biggest attack by one state against another in Europe since World War Two.

2. Ukraine closed its airspace to civilian flights after Russia launched a land, sea and air invasion of its neighbor, while Europe's aviation regulator warned about hazards to flying in bordering regions.

3. A jury was set to deliberate for a second day on whether three former Minneapolis police officers denied George Floyd his civil rights by failing to come to the aid of the handcuffed Black man pinned beneath another officer's knee.

4. The trial of a white former Kentucky police officer charged with wanton endangerment during the 2020 shooting death of Breonna Taylor began on Wednesday, casting a spotlight on another case in the United States that sparked a summer of protests against racial injustice two years ago.

5. Florida's House of Representatives was expected to take a final vote on Thursday on a Republican-backed bill that prohibits classroom discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity, a measure Democrats denounced as being anti-LGBTQ.
