Watch: BBC News clip about bells of Ukraine will ring true & won’t fail to move you

'Her use of poetic imagery and rhythmic patterns to illustrate her points is a wonderful thing indeed.'

Ukrainian officials have rejected a Russian demand that their forces in the besieged strategic port city of Mariupol lay down arms and raise white flags in exchange for safe passage out.

Russia has been barraging the encircled southern city on the Sea of Azov, hitting an art school sheltering some 400 people only hours before offering to open two corridors out of the city in return for the capitulation of its defenders, according to Ukrainian officials.

Fighting for Mariupol has continued to be intense, even as the Russian offensive in other areas has floundered to the point where Western governments and analysts see the broader conflict grinding into a war of attrition.

It comes as Liz Truss has condemned the “abduction and deportation” of Ukrainians from the besieged city of Mariupol, in a move that has been likened to Nazi Germany.

A Ukrainian MP claimed that her countrymen and women were being forced to relocate to “distant parts of Russia” to work in conditions akin to slave labour.

The Foreign Secretary said she was “appalled” by the reports and vowed for Russian President Vladimir Putin to be “held to account” for his treatment of civilians during the invasion.

Her answer was incredibly moving, beautiful and very sad.

Watch

In recent weeks, I've often talked with @bbclysedoucet early evening in Kyiv. And I've wanted to know about the beautiful dome that's always behind her. Just now I asked and Lyse's answer captured how this war competes with the rhythm of life as it was. https://t.co/BKGrSNRAzh pic.twitter.com/FeRFp9U4o5

1.

This was so moving to listen to Lyse speak earlier. Her way with words in the context of her situation never ceases to amaze me. I read it earlier that someone said she never has a wasted word, so considered in all she says. What skill and empathy she has.

2.

Yes, she is truly superb at what she does. The whole of the BBC team have been and are exceptional. As well as incredibly brave. 👏🏼.

@bbclysedoucet is superb. She has such empathy for the people caught up in conflict, from hugging & crying with women left behind in Kabul to this impromptu reply. I've watched her reports for years and she truly is one journalist who I respect & trust. An outstanding woman

— Moju (@Moju0) March 17, 2022

5.

Not just a straight answer but an immediate, impromptu, poetic soliloquy. From a war zone.

Since you are here

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
