Russia continues its invasion of Ukraine and in Kyiv the city's residents seek underground protection.

Louise Callaghan, foreign correspondent for the British Sunday Times, is in a shelter in the capital.

- People are very, very, scared, she says.

Earlier in the day, she has been out talking to people on the streets.

Many people are still trying to get to the train station, which is one of the last ways to get out of the city.

- There are a lot of people there, they have their children with them and there is panic.

They try to push themselves on the trains, says Louise Callaghan.

"Wait for the bombing"

Many roads leading out of the city are blocked in order to prevent Russian forces from entering.

Every day it gets harder to get out.

Louise Callaghan describes a feeling that it is "now or never", if you come out within the next few days it can still go.

But the Russian troops are getting closer.

- Is it safer to stay here and wait for the bombing?

Or is it safer to try to get out of here on a train that might be attacked or in a car where I might have to sit for several days and wait to get to the border, says Louise Callaghan.
