A bit of a sad milestone today - it's been six months to the day exactly since the war in Ukraine started.

Phil Johnstone's been in Ukraine for the past month, doing volunteer work with World Vision, helping people affected by the war.

He talks to Jesse about his experience in the war torn nation and how the people there are coping.
