The Ukraine War has now entered its 84th day. Thousands of NATO soldiers have amassed on Europe's borders with Russia, as the conflict inside the country rages on.
Surrendered Ukrainian troops who mounted the last defence of Mariupol are facing an uncertain fate, after Moscow claimed on Wednesday to have sent them to a penal colony.
Meanwhile, Finland and Sweden are continuing with their historic bids to join NATO, although questions remain as to whether Turkey will block them from joining the defensive alliance.

Authorities in the Melitopol region of Ukraine have reported more acts of resistance against Russian troops on Wednesday.
The military administration said a grenade exploded near a Russian command post, which was followed by an exchange of fire. No casualties were reported.
A Russian armoured train, which was carrying troops and ammunition, also overturned in Melitopol on Wednesday, causing ammunition to go off, the administration said on Telegram.
It said, "with help" from resistance fighters, the train derailed as the Russian military does not maintain tracks and overloads its trains.
On Tuesday, the administration claimed that Ukrainian resistance fighters had killed several high-ranking Russian officers in Melitopol, although this could not be independently verified by Euronews.
Russian forces have occupied the southern city of Melitopol, since the early days of the war.
