Russia's war: According to the authorities, hospitals in the city of Cherson are being evacuated

Faced with cold and darkness in Ukrainian cities as a result of massive blackouts, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy invoked his people's spirit of resistance against the Russian invasion. "We survived a full-scale war for nine months, and Russia didn't find a way to break us. And it won't find one," Zelenskyy said in his evening video address on Thursday. "We must carry on as we are right now, in unity and mutual aid." Russia invaded the neighboring country on February 24. Russian shelling in the city of Cherson in southern Ukraine killed 7 and wounded around 20, regional authorities said.
