We’re used to seeing President Zelensky with world leaders. What we’re not used to is seeing those same leaders then meeting Russia’s leader the following day.

Today seven African leaders are travelling to Kyiv to meet Zelensky, before heading to Moscow to meet Russia’s President Putin on Saturday.

They’re on a peace mission, though the initial goals may be modest.

There is also a meeting of Nato defence ministers happening in Brussels.

Meanwhile, a BBC investigation has found that about 25,000 Russian soldiers have been killed in Ukraine. That is four times the official figure released by Moscow.

Stick with Anna Boyd, Sarah Fowler and myself as we bring you updates throughout the day.
