US president Joe Biden has said Russia’s “brutal and unprovoked war against Ukraine has triggered a human catastrophe”, writes SKY NEWS.

Speaking at the opening of the Quad summit between the leaders of the US, Japan, Australia and India, he said: “It appears to me that Putin is trying to extinguish a culture.

He’s not even aiming at military targets any more, he’s taking out every school, every church...as if to try to obliterate Ukrainian culture and the world has to deal with it and we are”.
