Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky gives an unprecedented address to UK MPs in the House of Commons.
Speaking by video link, he welcomes sanctions on Russia but repeats an appeal for a no-fly zone over Ukraine.
He references Winston Churchill, saying "we will fight in the forests, in the fields, on the shores, in the streets"
A short while earlier the UK announced it would phase out Russian oil imports by the end of 2022
US President Joe Biden has also confirmed a complete US ban on Russian oil, gas and coal imports in a move designed to deal a "powerful blow" to Putin.
The EU has also made moves towards reducing the continent’s reliance on Russian gas.
The UN says two million refugees have now fled Ukraine since Russia invaded.
