Mr. Zelensky urged NATO on Thursday to provide Kyiv with unrestricted military aid
Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russia on Thursday of deploying phosphorus weapons in his country and urged NATO to provide military support.
"This morning, by the way, phosphorus bombs were used. Russian phosphorus bombs. Adults were killed again and children were killed again," Mr. Zelensky said during a video address to the US-led military alliance.
Mr. Zelensky urged NATO on Thursday to provide Kyiv with unrestricted military aid, one month into Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
"To save people and our cities, Ukraine needs military assistance without restrictions. In the same way that Russia is using its full arsenal without restrictions against us," the Ukrainian leader told NATO representatives via video-link.
Russia will "destroy freedom" in Europe and pursue its neighbours, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned Swedish lawmakers in an address.
"If Ukraine wouldn't endure and protect ourselves, it would mean that... all neighbours of Russia are in danger from now on," he said in a video link speech that got a standing ovation.
