Millions of Ukrainians are fleeing the destruction of war.

In my home, lounging?

I was a respected person.

Now I'm just just.

We speak to Ukrainian refugees and volunteers there to help in the humanitarian crisis.

I'm John Bickley with Georgia Howe.

It's Friday, March 11th, and this is Morning Wire.

Inflation has reached a 40-year high.

Oil and wheat prices are skyrocketing, and the war in Ukraine is causing global uncertainty.

Could all of these factors push the U.S. economy into a recession?

And WNBA player Brittany Griner has been detained in Russia for alleged possession of cannabis oil.

How will her detention play into the political posturing between Russia and the U.S.?

Thanks for waking up with Morning Wire.

Stay tuned.

We have the news you need to know.
