Russian President Vladimir Putin has declared martial law in four regions of Ukraine that were annexed last month by Moscow. The move also gives additional emergency powers to officials in eight Russian regions adjoining Ukraine. And, underprivileged schools in Uganda, Chile, the Philippines, and Scotland have won a competition for world's best schools, run by T4 Education digital platform which also awarded the schools with large cash prizes. Also, it’s been more than a month since protests have rocked Iran, sparked by the death of a young woman allegedly over how she wore her hijab. We hear from three women protesters from different generations in Tehran. Plus, a “plain language” bill passes in New Zealand.
