Russia's invasion of Ukraine intensifies with missile attacks and street fighting in Kyiv

Kyiv — Ukraine's top diplomat said Saturday morning that his country's capital had "survived another night" under Russian assault, as the president released a video reassuring his nation that he was still there. CBS News' Haley Ott said President Volodymyr Zelensky's message — shot outdoors on a cell phone, clearly in the capital of Kyiv — was a clear rebuttal to rumors that he might evacuate and reports that the United States had advised him to flee.

"There is lots of fake information in the internet that I called the army to give up and there's an evacuation ongoing," Zelensky told his nation. "I'm here, and I will not give up. We will still defend our country. Our weapon is the truth, and the truth is that we will defend our country, our land, our children. And we all will defend all of this. That's all I want to say to you. Glory to Ukraine."

Russia's assault on Ukraine intensified overnight. President Vladimir Putin's military launched coordinated artillery and missile attacks, taking aim at key sites in Kyiv and other cities in an invasion the Russian leader claims he ordered to "liberate" the neighboring country from a "neo-Nazi" regime.
