Russia Ukraine War Updates: Zelensky has requested weaponry from NATO in order to “avoid the lives of Ukrainians.”

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky has stated that the West should give “all the armaments we require” in order to avoid Ukrainians from dying as a result of Russian strikes. The US announces fresh sanctions against Ukraine and provides $2 billion in help. Russia has crossed the “red line into savagery,” according to British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. According to the United Nations, the Russian bombing has forced more than half of Ukraine’s youngsters to flee their homes. According to the UN, more than 10 million Ukrainians have abandoned their homes, with 4.3 million children among them.

The US has ruled out deploying planes or other big military systems to Ukraine at this time. ‘Grim milestone ‘Zelensky’s appeal to NATO came exactly one month after Russian tanks crossed the border, carrying out Putin’s strategy to reintegrate pro-Western Ukraine into Moscow’s circle. Nearly 3.7 million Ukrainians have fled to other countries, and more are being displaced within the country as a result of perilous treks out of towns like Mariupol. According to Zelensky, almost 100,000 people are stranded in the besieged city without food, water, or power. The city is a prized possession for Russia since it would provide a land link between Russian-annexed Crimea and territories currently under Russian proxy authority.
