0:56Now PlayingEven as Vladimir Putin reportedly signaled a willingness to talk, Russian forces have taken the Hostomel airfield near Kyiv and blockaded the city from the west, Interfax reported, citing the Defense Ministry in Moscow.
Kyiv’s mayor Vitali Klitschko said the capital is on the defensive and that explosions can be heard around the city of 2.8 million.
The Hostomel airfield is able to accommodate large transport planes and the Russian military could use it to funnel equipment for its assault on Kyiv, about 30 km (18 miles) northwest of downtown.
