Ukraine is being warned Russia plans to ramp up its offensive in the coming days. Crystal Goomansingh looks at which regions Russian forces are expected to target, how those able to get out are scrambling to leave, and why some people can't escape.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is also pleading with South Korea for weapons, with Russia expected to soon ratchet up its assault. Jackson Proskow reports on which countries are sending weapons to Ukraine, how Russia isn't expected to back down, and how Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer felt after his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Meanwhile, in the pandemic, COVID-19 vaccines reduce the risk of serious illness and death, but don't stop people from catching the illness, or getting it more than once. Mike Drolet explains why contracting COVID-19 doesn't mean you won't be reinfected and how long immunity might last.
