Ukraine's Zelensky Pays First Visit To War-Damaged South City

Russia Ukraine War: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky also took part in a meeting with local officials in what looked like an underground basement, giving out awards for bravery.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited the war-damaged southern city of Mykolaiv on Saturday for the first time since the Russian invasion in a rare trip outside Kyiv.

Zelensky's office published a video of him looking at a badly damaged high-rise residential building in the city and holding a meeting with local officials.

His visit comes a day after a Russian strike killed two people and injured 20 in the city.

Mykolaiv has been targeted by Russian forces since the start of their invasion on February 24.
