President Zelenskyy Releases Defiant New Video After Russian Night of Terror

If Russian President 👤Vladimir Putin thought his conquest of 🇺🇦Ukraine was going to be easy, he was sadly mistaken. The courage and resolve of the Ukrainian people as the Russian military carries out its unjustifiable and unprovoked assault on their nation has been the biggest surprise of all.

In the face of near-certain defeat, citizens of the former Soviet state, from trained soldiers to civilians, have repeatedly demonstrated their determination to defend their homeland.

After a particularly brutal night of fighting, Ukrainian President 👤Volodymyr Zelenskyy had a simple but devastating message for Putin on Saturday morning: “We survived the night.”

In a video posted to Instagram, Zelenskyy said, “I can start this address with good news. We withstood and successfully repel enemy attacks. The fighting continues in many cities and districts of our state. But we know what we are defending: the country, the land, the future of children.”

“Kyiv and key cities around the capital are controlled by our army,” he told supporters. “The invaders wanted to block the center of our state and put their puppets here, as in Donetsk. We broke their plan. They did not gain any advantage over us.”
