Ukraine again dominates the Sunday papers and the Sunday Mail leads with “Kyiv’s last stand” as it reports on efforts to prepare the capital against a brutal bombardment of missiles and bombs from Russia. Fighting has reached the suburbs of the city and Vladimir Putin’s army has formed a “ring of steel” around the city, the paper says.
The Sunday Times leads with the attack on another city, Volnovakha. The paper cites reports from a regional governor who said that the entire city had been wiped out in the Russian invasion and says Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russia of waging “a war of annihilation”.
A graphic depicting Vladimir Putin with a bomb as his face is the Sunday Post’s front page image under one word: Guilty. An international war investigator tells the paper that Russia’s indiscriminate shelling of towns and cities demands investigation and that targeting civilians and civilian objects is a war crime.
