Russia-Ukraine War: Key Things To Know About The Conflict
Newsy
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Saturday that Russia is bombing Mariupol “24 hours a day.”
A relentless assault on the Ukrainian port city of Mariupol continued Saturday, as Russian forces shelled the city's downtown, including an area around a mosque that was sheltering more than 80 people — some children.
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said Moscow has warned the United States that Moscow could attack convoys carrying military equipment to Ukraine, calling them "legitimate targets." U.S. President Joe Biden announced additional aid to Ukraine of up to $200 million for weapons, military services, education and training.
Russian units fanned out to prepare for an assault on Ukraine's capital of Kyiv. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Russia would need to carpet-bomb Kyiv and kill its residents to take the city.
