Lissabon is één van de oudste steden ter wereld en is een perfecte bestemming voor een meerdaagse citytrip. In de stad vindt u tal van bezienswaardigheden die zeker de moeite waard zijn om te bezichtigen. De stad is opgedeeld in verschillende wijken met iedere zijn eigen karakter en bijzonderheden. Ook de wijken die wat verder weg liggen van het centrum zoals Belém en Parque das Nações zijn de moeite waard om te bezoeken. Lissabon heeft een heerlijk nachtleven, geniet van de vele restaurantjes, barretjes en terrassen!

Rome is de hoofdstad van het prachtige Italië en tevens ook de belangrijkste stad van het land op cultureel en historisch gebied. Een citytrip naar Rome is zeker de moeite waard, vanwege de schitterende bezienswaardigheden.

Een van de bekendste attracties is het Colosseum. Gelegen in het archeologische hart van Rome en het meest indrukwekkende gebouw van het Romeinse Rijk. Een van de mooiste fonteinen van Rome is de Trevifontein. Dit indrukwekkende monument heeft een imposant uiterlijk. Ook vindt u in Rome een aantal schitterende kerken en musea. Daarnaast vindt u in Rome de kleinste staat ter wereld: Vaticaanstad!

Barcelona is een prachtige stad gelegen in het noordoosten van Spanje. De stad is al jaren zeer populair onder de toeristen. De beroemdste bezienswaardigheden van de stad zijn zonder twijfel de prachtige bouwwerken van Gaudí. Denk o.a. aan Parc Güell, Casa Milà en Sagrada Família. De combinatie van perfecte winkelstad, bezienswaardigheden en heerlijk eten maakt Barcelona een topbestemming! Tevens wordt Barcelona gecombineerd met een bezoek aan een voetbalwedstrijd van één van de beste voetbalclubs ter wereld: FC Barcelona.

Londen is dé ideale stad voor een veelzijdige citytrip en heeft als wereldstad alles in huis voor een onvergetelijke tijd. De Britse stad heeft ontzettend veel bezienswaardigheden. Een van de bekendste toeristische attracties is De Tower of London. In de tweede wereldoorlog diende De Tower Of London als gevangenis.

Last Minute stedentrip klassiekers

Je raakt er nooit uitgekeken, de klassieke stedentrip bestemmingen zoals Rome, Barcelona of Parijs. Maar ook een stedentrip naar Londen of het Zuid-Spaanse Valencia zijn zeer geliefd bij stedentrippers. Wanneer je een Last Minute stedentrip bij TUI boekt sta je binnen een no-time tussen de sinaasappelbomen in Valencia. Of ga naar de hoofdstad van het Verenigd Koninkrijk om over De Tower Bridge te struinen. Want met een Last Minute citytrip Londen sta je op korte termijn al op Oxford Street om daar eindeloos te winkelen of loop je richting de iconische klokkentoren Big Ben om die in het echt te bewonderen.

Verrassende en voordelige steden

Het zijn misschien niet de eerste steden waar je aan denkt bij een stedentrip. Maar voor wie op zoek is naar een verrassende Last Minute Stedentrip zijn Bilbao en Praag echte aanraders. Stap op korte termijn het vliegtuig in of pak eenvoudig de trein naar Praag in Tsjechië. Waarom Praag? Het is sfeervol, authentiek en veelzijdig. En wat dat betekent kun je het beste zelf ontdekken. Maar om een tipje van de sluier te lichten.. Pracht en praal van monumentale kastelen en paleizen, nauwe steegjes en grote pleinen. En het allerleukste? Het kost je allemaal maar een paar kronen. Maar je kunt je ook laten verrassen met een Last Minute Stedentrip naar het Spaanse Bilbao . Breng een bezoek aan het beroemde Guggenheim Museum of slenter door de oude binnenstad en ontdek talloze smalle straten en kleine boetieks. En als je er dan toch bent, sla in het centrum dan een bezoek aan een gezellige pintxos bar niet over. De pintxos zien eruit als ware kunstwerken en het is bovendien een gezellige manier om samen wat te eten in de stad.

Last Minute Stedentrip met de auto of trein

Voor wie op eigen tempo wil reizen, maar de auto niet bij de hand heeft, stapt in de trein naar steden als Berlijn , Parijs of Brugge. Het voordeel is dat je geen kosten hebt voor het parkeren en je bent ook nog eens bewuster bezig. Stippel je liever je eigen route uit? Stap dan in de auto en rijd naar een van de bruisende steden binnen Europa. Wat dacht je van een stedentrip naar de oudste stad van Duitsland, Trier. Of smul van Belgische lekkernijen in Brussel.

Frequently asked questions

What do i need to know before booking a flight.

There are various factors to consider when booking a flight including cost, fare classes, baggage policies, the complications of flying long haul, and complying with airport regulations. To make your booking journey smoother KAYAK has developed a comprehensive flight guide including insights on finding affordable flights, packing efficiently, and utilizing the best travel tools.

Which month of the year are flight prices lowest?

It’s well established that flights in the low season are generally cheaper than ticket prices during the high season. That means that knowing which month to find the lowest priced plane tickets will depend heavily on seasonality and your destination. While avoiding peak travel times can help you keep costs down, our data shows that the month with the lowest priced plane tickets for domestic flights based on all searches made on KAYAK in the last 12 months was January, while the most expensive was March. If you’re booking an international flight, then January is the cheapest month to fly and June the most expensive.

Can flying international flights with a layover save money on airfare?

For many long-haul international flights, flying non-stop is not possible and you will have to fly with a layover. Some routes will offer both and you could consider flying with a layover for a number of reasons. Firstly, breaking up what would otherwise be a long-haul flight, taking a rest and then completing the journey might make the flight more manageable. Secondly, prices can also be lower than non-stop flights, so while it might take longer for you to reach your destination, you could save money. We’ve looked at prices over the last 12 months for the 100 most popular international destinations for KAYAK users and on average, prices for non-stop flights were cheaper than flights with a layover.

How do I find the best flight deals on KAYAK?

A simple flight search at https://www.kayak.com/flights scans for prices on hundreds of travel sites in seconds. We gather flight deals from across the web and put them in one place. Then on the search results page you can use various filters to compare options for the same flight and easily choose the best flight deal from all of the deals coming straight from the travel sites to your screen, with no extra fee from KAYAK.

Does KAYAK query more flight providers than competitors?

Yes, KAYAK has access to more data and information than online travel agencies and consistently outperforms the competition in accuracy, globally.

What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care?

Sometimes travel dates aren't set in stone. If your preferred travel dates have some wiggle room, flexible dates will show you flights up to 3 days before/after your preferred dates. That way, you can see if leaving a day or two earlier will find you a better deal. You can also select the flexible "weekend" or "month" search options to widen your search range and find the cheapest price that works for you.

What is the cheapest day of the week to book a flight?

The best day to book your flight depends on a number of factors, but there are general trends that you can follow to increase your chances of cheaper plane tickets. Based on an analysis of KAYAK data for all flights departing from inside United States over the last 12 months, the cheapest day to fly for domestic flights is Wednesday. For international flights, Tuesday had the cheapest tickets on average.

When is the best time to buy plane tickets - Last minute or in advance?

Last minute flight deals are definitely up for grabs but when exactly to purchase your plane tickets will depend on where you’re traveling to and from. Based on all data for flight searches made on KAYAK over the last 12 months, prices for domestic flights remained below the average price up to 1 weeks before departure. For international flights, deals could still be had up to 1 weeks prior to the departure date, with prices remaining below average. If you’re flexible, KAYAK brings you both advance and last minute one-way and round-trip flight deals.

How does KAYAK find such low flight prices?

KAYAK processes over 2 billion flight queries annually and displays results from hundreds of airlines and third party sites, allowing it to find a variety of flight prices and options. It also displays results from 2M+ properties along with rental cars, vacation packages, activities and millions of verified reviews so users can see as many available travel options as possible.

How can Hacker Fares save me money?

Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets on different airlines when it can save you money over a traditional round-trip ticket.

How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy?

KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a given destination and date is likely to change within 7 days, so travelers know whether to wait or book now.

Additionally, consider the different flight classes including economy flights for functionality and premium flights if you want to enjoy a more relaxing experience.

Where’s the cheapest place to travel?

The cheapest place to travel can be in the same country, like Chicago. Flights to Chicago are fairly affordable no matter where you’re coming from in the continental United States. Flights to Las Vegas tend to be pretty affordable as well. While the Vegas airport isn’t a hub for any major airline, it does have plenty of competition to keep prices relatively low.

Where can I fly for cheap?

Staying within a strict budget still allows you to find plenty of cheap flights, even to destinations like Puerto Rico. In fact, flights to Puerto Rico don’t even require U.S. citizens to have a passport. Flights to Alberta and other destinations in Canada can be fairly affordable as well.

Is it cheaper to buy flights last minute?

Flight tickets can be cheaper at the last minute depending on how late you’re actually booking, where you’re going, and the kind of flight you opt for. For domestic flights with Economy tickets, prices usually start to increase 3 weeks before departure, and 4 weeks for international flights, according to historical data*.

Are fully refundable flights available?

Yes, several fully refundable flights are available and will be labeled as such right on your search results page in green text. You may also filter for fully refundable flights specifically to eliminate all flights from your results that don’t qualify. Just make sure to check the specific policy for each flight before booking.

Why should I book my flight with Expedia?

Last-minute trip from Florida for the total eclipse? Here's the closest large city in the path

The first total solar eclipse of 2024 is Monday, April 8 and it will be the only solar eclipse this year that will have a path of totality stretching across the U.S. And it’s been nicknamed “The Great North American Eclipse.”

Florida isn’t in the path of totality, but depending on where you are in the state, you might be able to see a little over half of the sun being covered by the moon. Although, if you’re up for an impromptu road trip this weekend, the closest big city in the path of totality is a 14-hour drive from Orlando.

Here’s how visible the April 8 total solar eclipse will be from Florida and where the closest big city in the path of totality is.

Can you see the solar eclipse in Florida 2024?

Florida isn’t in the direct path of the total eclipse.

The path of totality of the Great North American Eclipse will start between New Zealand and Mexico in the South Pacific Ocean, pass from Mexico into Oklahoma, and travel northeast (diagonally) across the country. The path of totality will cross the New England region of the U.S. and then a portion of Canada, before ending in the Atlantic Ocean near the French and Spanish coasts.

While we're not in the path of totality, we'll still be able to see a partial eclipse from Florida. From just over half of the sun to over 3/4 of it will be obscured by the moon from our angle, depending on where you are in the state.

Explore these interactive maps: How long will the solar eclipse darkness last in your city?

What major cities are in the path of totality 2024?

A recent study from online fishing and hunting guidebook Captain Experiences mapped the biggest cities with the best view of the total solar eclipse in the path of totality.

“Due to the unique path of the 2024 eclipse, Texas stands out as the state hosting the top four largest cities within the totality path and eight of the top 15,” the study said.

“Notably, among the five largest cities in Texas — Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, and Austin — only Houston will not experience the total solar eclipse this year.”

Here’s Captain Experiences’ list of the largest cities in the path of totality:

• San Antonio, Texas
• Dallas, Texas
• Austin, Texas
• Fort Worth, Texas
• Columbus, Ohio
• Indianapolis, Indiana
• Arlington, Texas
• Cleveland, Ohio
• Plano, Texas
• Buffalo, New York
• Toledo, Ohio
• Irving, Texas
• Garland, Texas
• Rochester, New York
• Little Rock, Arkansas

Which city in the eclipse path of totality is closest to Florida?

If you want to drive to see the eclipse in its path of totality, it’s a long drive, but it’s possible. And you'd need to make the trip this weekend or pull an all-nighter on Sunday to make it.

Of the biggest cities in the 2024 total solar eclipse path of totality, Little Rock, Arkansas is closest to Florida.

Depending on where you are in Florida, the drive to Little Rock takes around 10 hours (from Tallahassee), to 17 hours (from Miami).

Will Little Rock, Arkansas be in the path of totality 2024?

Yes! Little Rock, Arkansas is in the path of totality for the total solar eclipse on Monday, April 8. The window of totality in Little Rock is anticipated to be 2 minutes and 29 seconds of complete darkness.

According to Time and Date , the eclipse will begin around 12:33 p.m. in Little Rock, reach maximum darkness at around 1:52 p.m. and it will end around 3:11 p.m.

I'm driving 6 hours through New York's Adirondacks to see the 2024 total solar eclipse from Potsdam. Here's why.

The first total solar eclipse I saw in 2017 was a work event. For the 2024 total solar eclipse, I'm bringing my kid.

Seven years ago, I witnessed my first total solar eclipse. Yes, it was amazing and spectacular, but it was also, surprisingly, a bit sad. Let me explain.

I witnessed my first total solar eclipse on Aug. 21, 2017 from Saluki Stadium at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale (which, coincidentally, will see another total eclipse of the sun on April 8). And while there were thousands of other spectators there, it was by all accounts a work event. My friends and family were at home in New Jersey, out of the totality zone and hoping to glimpse maybe a meager partial eclipse of the sun. So, as totality finished and the sun peeked out from behind the moon, the exhilaration from witnessing a cosmic event was replaced by a twinge of regret for leaving my family behind. 

But, weather permitting, that will change for the 2024 total solar eclipse on April 8. This time I'm bringing my 15-year-old daughter Zadie and some friends.

For the April 8 solar eclipse , I'm headed from New Jersey through the Adirondack mountains of upstate New York — which I'm told are stunning —  to visit Potsdam, a college town of about 15,000 people that's also home to the State University of New York Potsdam and Clarkson University. I picked the location at the suggestion of close friends with ties to the school, who noticed not only that it was opening its dorms to eclipse chasers (at a bargain $60 per night compared to $370-a-night hotel I had on hold at Saranac Lake), but that the university town had set up a range of community events to celebrate the eclipse. It sounded perfect to share a cosmic event with family. 

"What are you looking forward to most for the solar eclipse?" I asked my daughter after the first leg of our 6-hour drive. (My wife volunteered to stay behind to watch over our cat Morris. They both have eclipse glasses and will see a 91.5% eclipsed sun, weather permitting.)

"To just see the solar eclipse, dad," she said.

Still, if all goes well — and the skies are clear — Potsdam will see up to 3 minutes and 14 seconds of totality between 3:24 p.m. and end at 3:27 p.m. EDT on April 8 for the 2024 total solar eclipse. It's a sight the village won't see again until 2399, local officials have said. 

"The Village of Potsdam, along with the rest of the North Country, is over the moon — pardon the pun — to be in the path of the 2024 total solar eclipse," Potsdam Mayor Alexandra Jacobs Wilke told me in an email. "This is a truly generational event that won't ever happen again here, in our lifetimes or our children's lifetimes. We feel fortunate to be in this particular place at this exact moment in time, and look forward to sharing that sense of wonder with all our visitors as well."

While other nearby universities are holding campus-only events, SUNY Potsdam is opening its doors to the public and hoping to host up to 5,000 visitors for the eclipse on Monday afternoon (that's how many eclipse glasses the school ordered for the event) with a series of educational activities and talks for students and the public from 1:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. EDT.

"We expect our students, we expect our staff, we expect our faculty and we expect some of the community to come to campus to participate in the event," Dr. Page Quinton, a geochemist and associate professor Earth and Environmental Sciences who is helping organize the event. "But we've been warned that we could have thousands of people coming to the area from outside."

SUNY Potsdam students were scheduled to return to classes on April 8 after a week off for spring break, but the university canceled classes — as did the town's school district — so students could have a chance to see the solar eclipse. Potsdam Central School District also sent its elementary students home with free eclipse glasses before the class break, Wilke said. 

Quinton said the university has lined up eclipse-themed Frisbees, stickers and other keepsakes for visitors (as well as Potsdam eclipse-themed merch available for sale), but the event is also a chance for the school itself to shine.

"This eclipse is bringing us the opportunity for everyone to interact with parts of campus that they may not always interact with, or for the community to interact with us in ways that they don't always get to," she said. 

One unexpected bonus from picking SUNY Potsdam for the eclipse: My daughter will get her first taste of what college life might be like as we stay in the university's dorms. The school is also holding a welcome event for prospective students to showcase what SUNY Potsdam has to offer.

For her part, Quinton is hoping to see her first totality after seeing a partial eclipse. 

"I've actually never seen that total solar eclipse, so I'm quite excited to see one," she added.

Elsewhere in Potsdam, visitors can take a three-day Eclipse Fragrance Festival at the Adirondack Fragrance Farm while other celebrations go on across the wider St. Lawrence County that the village calls home. Jernabi Coffeehouse in Potsdam has cooked up some eclipse-themed brews for coffee fans to enjoy (which I plan to try for sure) and the local children's museum has been holding Science Saturday events for kids to learn about eclipses. 

" St. Lawrence County has been preparing for the eclipse for quite a while now, and yet, it is still difficult to know what to expect!" Wilke told me. "As of today, the conditions in our area look like they will be clear, so we may see a last-minute rush of visitors to our area who had originally planned on viewing the eclipse elsewhere. Since we are not bisected by major highways, we aren't anticipating the high level of traffic that the Buffalo, N.Y., area is, or the Watertown, N.Y., area just to our south." 

Wilke said her young daughter's Girl Scout troop built their own pinhole camera solar viewers out of boxes last fall for the Oct. 14 annular solar eclipse in order to land their eclipse merit badges and are gearing up for the total eclipse on April 8. (Our guide on how to make a pinhole camera can help you make one of your own, our you can just check out our guide for the best solar viewing gear .)

"This is an opportunity to come together and experience the awe of the cosmos in a communal environment unlike any other," Wilke said. "I hope this gives us a chance to show the best of what Potsdam has to offer, for both our residents and visitors."

"It's a reminder that in the scope of our vast universe, we are an infinitesimal speck ... but a beautiful speck indeed, one worth protecting for the future."

• BenAustin Hi Tarik! I had the great fortune to work with you over the 2017 Eclipse. Like you, I did that one for work. And tomorrow I am driving with my family from the New York City area up to Quebec. We are looking hopeful -- 100% totality plus clear weather for Monday. We will see how things go, but I'm hopeful that I can change my great experience of 2017 (partly cloudy, but Totality in Charleston, South Carolina) to an Astounding Experience with family on Monday 4/8.

Ukraine-Russia war: Latest updates

Follow our Ukraine war live page for all the latest developments and analysis of the conflict. Listen to a Daily podcast episode on the notion of the UK putting troops on the ground in Ukraine as you scroll.

Tuesday 16 April 2024 13:05, UK

• The big picture: What's happening with the war as we enter a new week?
• Your questions answered: Is it too late to save Ukraine?

While we haven't been able to bring you live updates today, we have been keeping an eye on what's been happening in the Ukraine conflict. 

Here's a quick round-up of the key updates so far: 

• Volodymyr Zelenskyy said a lack of air defence missiles prevented Ukraine from thwarting a Russian missile attack last week that destroyed the biggest power plant in the region around the capital Kyiv; 
• Ukraine's air defence systems destroyed all nine drones launched in a Russian attack, the air force said;
• The IAEA warned that attacks on the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant put the world at risk;
• The Kremlin reacted to French President Emmanuel Macron's call for a truce in international conflicts during the Paris Olympics and said Ukraine might use it as an opportunity to regroup and rearm;
• German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said he had asked Chinese President Xi Jinping to exert influence over Russia to end the war in Ukraine.

Good morning, and welcome to our overview of the war between Russia and Ukraine as it rolls into another week.

The big news of the weekend came from the Middle East as Iran launched a significant missile and drone attack on Israel. Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the attack and said Ukraine knows "very well the horror of similar attacks by Russia".

Meanwhile, a Kremlin-installed official in the southern Zaporizhzhia region said 16 people were killed in an attack on the occupied town of Tokmak, which Russia has blamed on Ukraine. Two  people were also killed in a separate shelling in the Russian-occupied Kherson region.

While our live coverage remains paused, we've zoomed out to give you the bigger picture of the war today.

The frontline

Concerns appear to be increasing that Ukraine's defences may be at risk of collapse in the face of a new Russian assault. 

Sources in numerous media outlets over the past couple of weeks have raised this fear as Ukraine is facing shortages of both manpower and ammunition, and appears outmanned and outgunned on the battlefield.

Western officials told Bloomberg the country is now at its most fragile moment since the war began. 

Ukraine's military chief said on Saturday that the battlefield situation in the east had "significantly worsened in recent days" and that Moscow had ramped up its assaults since Vladimir Putin extended his rule in the Russian presidential election.

Reports also suggest Ukraine's second-largest city, Kharkiv, could be among the targets for a renewed Russian assault. 

Kharkiv has faced intense bombardment from Russia in recent months, coming under fire from S-300 ballistic missiles and glide bombs, and was the target of repeated attacks last week. 

The city is not the most likely target of a fresh assault, media reports say, but Russian news outlets have raised the prospect. 

'Massive strikes' on energy infrastructure 

Overnight into Thursday saw a huge assault on Ukraine's energy infrastructure, with 40 missiles and 40 drones reportedly sent into the country by Russia. 

A thermal power plant just outside Kyiv was completely destroyed and went up in flames, while 200,000 residents in Kharkiv were left without power. 

Vladimir Putin later said he had been "obliged" to attack Ukraine's energy infrastructure after Kyiv conducted attacks on Russian oil refineries.

Attacks at Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant

Russia accused Ukraine of attacking the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in a series of drone strikes over three days. 

The attacks at the Russian-occupied plant began on 7 April, with the roof of reactor 6 damaged. 

Ukraine has repeatedly denied involvement and said it would never target a nuclear facility, suggesting Russia was behind the attacks.

The UN's nuclear watchdog, the IAEA, has warned the "reckless" attacks "significantly increase the risk of a major nuclear accident". 

It has not said who it believes is behind the attacks. 

Civilian casualties increase sharply

The UN recorded a dramatic increase in civilian casualties in Ukraine in the last month. 

At least 57 children were killed or injured in March - double the number in February - as Russian forces stepped up their attacks. 

The UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission said it had verified at least 604 civilians killed or injured in Ukraine in March, a 20% increase from the previous month. 

"The March increase in civilian casualties was mainly due to attacks by the Russian armed forces using missiles and loitering munitions across Ukraine and increased aerial bombardments near the frontline," the Rights Office said.

It followed warnings from Volodymyr Zelenskyy that Ukraine country could run out of air defence missiles if Russia keeps up its intense bombing campaign. 

On Saturday, Uk

At least 10 people, including children, have been killed by shelling in a Russian-occupied town in Ukraine's southern Zaporizhzhia region, a local Kremlin-installed official said.

International diplomacy

In a rare meeting between a head of state and a minister, Chinese President Xi Jinping met Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov for talks on Monday. 

The pair met in the Chinese capital, where they pledged to strengthen communication. 

It was also a big week of diplomatic talks for the UK foreign secretary, who headed to Washington to appeal to Congress over the stalled multi-billion-dollar aid package for Ukraine. 

Lord Cameron made what was seen by some as an unusual trip to visit Donald Trump in Mar-a-Lago - likely because Republicans blocking the aid bill in the House of Representatives are aligned with Mr Trump. 

The foreign secretary was tight-lipped about what was discussed afterwards, saying the pair had "discussed a range of important geopolitical subjects". 

While live coverage of the war remains paused, here's a quick round-up of the key updates: 

• Two people were killed by Ukrainian strikes on the Russian-held parts of Kherson, the Moscow-installed regional governor said;
• Russia's defence ministry said its air defence systems destroyed 10 Ukraine-launched drones over the Krasnodar region in southern Russia and five drones over the Black Sea overnight; 
• Ukraine similarly claimed to have downed 10 Russian drones;
• The death toll in Zaporizhzhia from yesterday's attack, which Russia blames on Ukraine, rose to 16;
• President Zelenskyy condemned last night's attack by Iran on Israel.

A Ukrainian rocket also struck a machine-building plant in Russian-occupied Luhansk in eastern Ukraine, injuring three civilians, according to Moscow-based official Vladimir Rogov.

Meanwhile, Russia has claimed to have taken a village in Ukraine's Donetsk region. 

Russia's defence ministry said the capturing of Pervomaiske had improved its tactical position on the frontline. 

Ukraine's army chief has also warned the situation on the eastern front had deteriorated in recent days, with Moscow's forces intensifying its armoured assaults. 

Colonel General Oleksandr Syrskyi said battles were still raging for control of a village west of the devastated Bakhmut - an area that has seen some of the bloodiest fighting throughout the war.

We'll be back tomorrow morning with more updates on the war in Ukraine.

Two Biden administration officials have revealed the extent of China's involvement in Russia's war on Ukraine.

The officials spoke to Reuters news agency and said China has massively increased its sales to Russia of machine tools, microelectronics and other technology to Moscow.

These items are important because Russia is using them to make tanks, aircraft, missiles and other weapons for the war.

They also said:

• About 90% of Russia's microelectronics came from China
• Nearly 70% of Russia's approximately $900m in machine tool imports in the last quarter of last year came from China
• Chinese and Russian entities have been working together to make drones in Russia
• China is helping Russia improve its satellite and other space-based capabilities for use in the war. This could increase the threat Russia poses across Europe

US President Joe Biden has previously raised concerns with Chinese President Xi Jinping about Beijing's indirect involvement in the war.

US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen returned this week from a visit to Beijing and said she had warned China that the Biden administration was prepared to sanction Chinese banks, companies and Beijing's leadership if they helped Russia's military in the war.

She has already been given the go-ahead from Mr Biden to sanction financial institutions that help Russia's military-industrial complex.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is due to travel to China for talks next month.

Russia, increasingly isolated economically and diplomatically, has become more reliant on China in recent months.

One official said Chinese materials are helping Moscow undertake its "most ambitious defence expansion since the Soviet era and on a faster timeline than we believed possible early on in this conflict".

"Our view is that one of the most game-changing moves available to us at this time to support Ukraine is to persuade the PRC (China) to stop helping Russia reconstitute its military industrial base. Russia would struggle to sustain its war effort without PRC input," the official said. 

Chinese Embassy spokesperson Liu Pengyu told Reuters that Beijing has not provided weapons to any party and that it is "not a producer of or party involved in the Ukraine crisis".

"We urge the US side to refrain from disparaging and scapegoating the normal relationship between China and Russia."

If Russia defeats Ukraine it will be a "turning point in history", former UK prime minister Boris Johnson says.

Writing in the Daily Mail, he criticised Western countries for not providing Ukraine with the weapons it needs to defeat Russia.

"Every week in which we fail to do the obvious — and give the Ukrainians the weapons they need — is a week in which Putin gets closer to his disgusting ambition, to torture a European country to death.

"Every day the pressure on the Ukrainians is growing — and yet the solution is within our grasp."

Mr Johnson, who visited Ukraine a number of times during his premiership, said: "A defeat for Ukraine would usher in a new era of fear in the whole Euro-Atlantic area, as Putin continues his drive to rebuild the Soviet empire: from the Baltics to Georgia to Moldova to Central Asia to the Arctic.

"It will be a terrifying moment for the people of Taiwan and the clearest possible signal to China that the West has lost the willpower to protect democracy.

"It will be a turning point in history, the moment when the West finally loses its post-war hegemony, the moment when borders everywhere are suddenly up for grabs and aggression is seen to pay — and all because of a failure to stand up for Ukraine."

Mr Johnson warned the world is "on a knife-edge, with a real risk that Western democracies are about to be humiliated, and autocracies emboldened around the world — because of our lassitude, our pathetic refusal to do what is necessary".

He said Ukraine is so short of shells that its troops sometimes have to wait under Russian bombardment because they can't fire back.

The shortage of air defences means Kharkiv, the second-largest city, is "in danger of being turned into another Mariupol", he added.

Ukrainians were able to intercept 90% of incoming strikes, he said, but now "we are starving them, for reasons I do not understand, of the protective shields they need".

Mr Johnson called on the US Congress to approve a $60bn military aid package earmarked for Ukraine and on the Germans to supply Taurus missiles.

The West - including Britain - needs to "snap out of our sleep-walk", he said, adding: "The simplest and most cost-effective way to defend freedom is to invest now in the defence of Ukraine."

Rescue workers in Ukraine have saved five puppies from under the debris of a destroyed building.

The non-residential building was on fire in the north-eastern city of Sumy, close to the border with Russia.

A video from the State Emergency Service of Ukraine showed the firefighters cuddling the squealing puppies and rinsing them off with water.

In a post of the emergency service's Telegram channel, officials said the "little ones" were not injured.

"This rescue story reminds us of the importance of human compassion and the willingness to help everyone, regardless of the circumstances," they added.

Ex-armed forces minister James Heappey has told Sky's defence and security editor Deborah Haynes the UK should consider sending its forces to Ukraine to train troops.  

On the Sky News Daily, host Tom Cheshire talks to her and Sky's military analyst Professor Michael Clarke about the interview with Mr Heappey, who stepped down from his role last month.  

They assess the bleak situation in Ukraine and why the conflict is at a critical stage. They also discuss how prepared the UK would be if it faced a war in the near future.

A former Ukrainian secret service employee has been injured in Moscow after a device under his car exploded.

Vasily Prozorov suffered leg injuries that are not considered life threatening after the device detonated as he tried to start his car, Radio Free Europe cited Russian media as saying.

According to RFE, Mr Prozorov worked for Ukraine's SBU until 2018.

The following year, he told media in Moscow that he had collaborated with Russia "for ideological reasons" from April 2014 until he left the SBU.

Last-Minute Solar Eclipse Glasses: Here's How to Find a Pair

Warby Parker says its stores are out of stock of free ones, but you still have other options. Also, make sure you test your glasses.

It's essential to wear a proper pair of eclipse glasses, or a  box pinhole projector  for indirect viewing , if you'll be viewing the skies during the solar eclipse today . Except for the brief period of total darkness or totality, looking at any portion of the sun or partial eclipse can cause damage to your eyes .  

Warby Parker , the popular prescription glasses shop, was making it a little easier by offering free solar eclipse glasses at its stores. However, the company is now out of stock, according to an automated message on Warby Parker's customer service line, and information from a company representative provided to CNET Sunday evening. (If you don't want to take my word for it, you can try calling your local Warby Parker store using this store-locator map .)

We're down to the wire. But if you're searching last- last minute, below are a couple more ways to snag a pair of glasses that come from the American Astronomical Society's  preapproved list of sellers  that make legitimate (i.e. safe) eclipse glasses. 

If you bought your glasses from a store or source outside the list of safe sellers, it's an extra-good idea to test your glasses before the eclipse  to make sure they're the real deal, especially amid recent  reports of recalls of eclipse glasses, including some stores in Missouri.

Where else to look for free glasses (or buy some last minute)

A good option for finding free solar eclipse glasses is to visit your local library to see if it's offering any. The AAS has a map of  libraries offering certified glasses . Or, you can give your library a call. 

If you're out of free options, there are some chain stores, restaurants and convenience stores selling certified solar eclipse glasses, according to the AAS, although whether they carry them will depend on the individual location. 

The following stores sell certified glasses in-shop, as identified by the AAS :  

• Walmart 
• Cracker Barrel 
• Bucc-ee's 
• Meijer 
• Menards 

If you get to your local Warby Parker store and it's already run out of eclipse glasses, the company says it also has  pinhole projectors  on hand. (You can also  make your own   pinhole projector .) 

Wherever you get your glasses, especially if you buy them from a source that hasn't been vetted specifically by the AAS, it's a good idea to give them a test run before the big event. To help you figure it out, the  American Academy of Ophthalmology says that while looking through them, no light of "ordinary brightness" should be visible through your eclipse glasses or solar viewer; only the sun or sunlight that's reflected somewhere.
