Dispatches From Ukraine: Local Journalists Report

The statue of Prince Volodymyr I, along with twenty other public monuments in Kyiv, has been under protection since March. Citizens of the Ukrainian capital deplore the fact that they are hidden away and hope to see them again soon, when the war is hopefully over. Report by our Ukrainian colleagues Inna Lebedenko and Oleg Borshevskyi for TSN 1+1.

Kyiv Misses its Statues

According official figures, hundreds of historic monuments including churches have been damaged or destroyed by Russian shells or tanks. Many museums have also been looted. Investigations are underway as the destruction of cultural heritage is a war crime. Report by our Ukrainian colleagues Alla Khousynivsk, Sergii Osadtchiouk, Ivan Pavlovytch and Andrii Khloust for TSN 1+1.

Located about 100 km east of Odessa, in southern Ukraine, the city of Kherson was quickly taken by Russian forces on 2 March. Since then, the inhabitants have been living under Russian occupation. Our Ukrainian colleague Svitlana Pavuk reports on daily life there for TSN 1+1.

Kherson: Life under Russian Occupation

In Kharkiv, Dmytro, Roman and Vitaly have become brothers in arms. All three joined the Ukrainian Territorial Defence this year at the start of the Russian invasion. All three had already lost their legs in previous combat which would have enabled them to avoid going to war. A report by Ukrainian journalists Nataliya Nagorna, Volodymyr Cherenkov, Irina Krylenko and Sergii Semeniuk for TSN 1+1.

The Defenders of Kharkiv

In eastern Ukraine, the town of Sieverodonetsk  is under attack from the Russian army, to the point of being the country's next Mariupol. Yet the Ukrainian authorities refuse to force the inhabitants to evacuate the capital of the Luhansk region. 15,000 of them are still living in shelters, and many refuse to leave, despite the convoys that have been put in place.

Leaving Sieverodonetsk

On the first day of the war, a shell exploded near Marina's flat in eastern Ukraine. Her face was disfigured in the blast. In Kyiv, facial plastic surgery will give her a fresh start. Our Ukrainian colleagues Iryna Markevich, Andrii Romaniuk and Andrii Vetroshkin report for TSN 1+1.

In Europe, the last primary forests are found almost exclusively in the mountains in the east or south-east of the continent. These virgin forests have never been exploited or cut down, and have remained as they have always been. Few studies have been done on this forests, which are presumably havens of biodiversity. We go on a research trip to the Dinaric Alps in Albania.

Revitalising the Earth

As soon as weightlessness sets in in Earth orbit, everything floats, including bodily fluids. Most astronauts suffer from space sickness – similar to seasickness. You get sick, your eyes go crazy, your face swells up, your legs get longer and after a few sleepless nights (there is no day or night in space) many astronauts get severe back pain. Space researchers are trying to understand how the human body reacts without gravity. Could we need it to live?

Are We Ready for Mars?

What would happen to our bodies if we were all suddenly exposed to weightlessness in space?

The Supreme Court is now made of a majority of ultra-conservative judges since President Trump's term in office.
