of bread, anything that requires a tin or a can, on sunflower oil and, of course, it s here already in our use of petrol at the pumps and energy generally, especially gas, all of which are being hit by limits on what russia or ukraine are able to export. have a look at the price energy companies pay for the gas they need to supply to households. it s been about 50p per therm for two decades. during the invasion, it shot up, to 508p per therm, a new record and making another significant rise in bills in autumn likely. it s notjust gas, though. this is a similar 20 year chart for wheat, up 40% this month after exports stopped from russia and ukraine. metals prices also surging, aluminium at new records as russian exports halt, going up 30% over the past month. that s going to mean higher energy, transport and food prices in the uk. it s possible that inflation

an explosion and fire next to the country s biggest nuclear power station underlying the potential for this conflict to spiral. and now there are reports russian forces are advancing on a second plant. cheering and applause. so other european capitals are taking note. look at the crowd in prague in the czech republic. a huge show of support for ukraine, and opposition to vladimir putin. a new iron curtain has fallen in russia, and this time it is an information iron curtain. his invasion is affecting his own country as well. american networks like cbs joining british and other international organisations suspending reporting from russia. the kremlin refuses to call this a war oran invasion, and it has passed new laws threatening anyone it deems to be spreading fake news about what it terms a special military operation
these pictures show ukrainian soldiers helping their own people cross the ruined remains of a bridge to get to safety. it s notjust the exodus on trains we ve seen heading west. the un says 1.2 million have now left ukraine for neighbouring countries, and millions more are on the move within ukraine. the big questions how many more people will be forced to flee, how much more damage and destruction will come, and just how much longer will this go on? wow. too long, it has already been going for too long. now on breakfast it s time for newscast, and, as you d expect, adam fleming and laura kuenssberg have been taking a look at the events in ukraine. 0bviously how i feel about what is happening in ukraine is the least important thing about what is happening, but i have to say,
that putin s gone in there, does feel very much as though it s something very close to russia. it would feel more like it is a stupid analogy but it would feel more like england going into scotland than it does going into afghanistan. and that means that the popular support is going to be very, very limited. they re not going to be up for. kyiv i m trying to get through the scenarios, but kyiv is an incredibly important place in russian culture and civilisation, it s one of the great cultural capitals of the belarusian, ukrainian, russian world. it would be like trying to bomb durham cathedral to the ground. it s not going to feel like going into grozny. there s not going to be public support, i suspect, in russia, from trying to flatten kyiv, and the problem is that now that he s bogged down, the only options really remaining to him to try is to take much more brutal methods, which i think would be unacceptable. it s fascinating to hear those scenarios
