Hello, it's 278 days since Russia began its invasion of Ukraine.

Ukraine is expecting it says more attacks on its infrastructure and in an interview with

the BBC, the Ukrainian Prosecutor General Andre Kostin described the attacks on infrastructure

by Russia as a genocidal tactic.

But we are facing now its deliberate destroying of critical civil infrastructure, electricity,

heating, water, incoming winter season, which is a way of making life of Ukrainian people

impossible.

And this is also an element of genocide because it's targeting against full Ukrainian nation.

The temperatures predicted to fall well below zero this week, worried about conditions

in Kherson, some people left the city over the weekend.

In this episode, we'll talk more about whether this Russian strategy can be described as

genocide and also whether it's working from the Russian point of view.

And we'll also hear from a Ukrainian woman called Elena about an attack that hit her mum

and her son.

This is Ukraine Kost.

The question for us now is to be or not to be.

I'm ordering the Ministry of Defence to put the strategic nuclear forces on special alert.

I could not imagine that I would find out that actually my home is bombed.

Putin is the aggression.

He will never be able to cleanse the blood from his hands.

Hello, this is Victoria Darbyshire in the Ukraine Castudio in London.
