Hundreds of Edinburgh residents have lined the streets during a march to mark one year since the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The march, which started at Johnston Terrace and is set to conclude at the Scottish Parliament building has attracted huge crowds, with many sporting the Ukrainian flag and others making speeches.
Almost 23,000 Ukrainians fled their country to start a new life in Scotland - many of those travelling to Edinburgh and have expressed their gratitude at being welcomed with open arms into the capital.
