The Duchess of Edinburgh has visited Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and First Lady Olena Zelenska in the Ukrainian capital Kiev.

Sophie, who is the wife of the King's youngest sibling Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh, met the Ukrainian President at his Mariinskyi Palace.

The King's sister-in-law, 59, also met the Ukrainian First Lady to show support to victims of sexual violence.

She is the first British Royal to visit Ukraine since World War II.

Britain is second only to the US in military aid to Ukraine in its war against Russia.
