Ukraine war: Civilians leave Irpin after days of fighting
Civilians have been evacuated from the town of Irpin, after a temporary ceasefire was agreed to allow residents to flee towns besieged by Russian forces.
Residents headed for the capital of Kyiv said it was too dangerous to stay as there was "no light, no gas, everything was cut.''
Previous attempts at a ceasefire and civilian evacuations over the weekend failed.
