Less than 24 hours after Russian forces invaded Ukraine, they were advancing from three directions and threatening to take the capital of Kyiv. This ABC News Radio special examines all angles of the attack that U.S. officials said was designed to “decapitate” Ukraine’s government. ABC’s Alex Stone hosts, with Aaron Katersky reporting from Lviv, Ukraine; Patrick Reevell in Kyiv; Matt Gutman at the border, where there’s already a refugee crisis; and Karen Travers at the White House, where President Biden announced new sanctions. We also hear from Ukrainians who have not fled, and ABC’s Elizabeth Schulze reports on the spreading economic consequences for Americans and the rest of the world.
