Asia7 killed, 9 injured in Russian bombing, says Ukraine

Seven die, nine injured in the Russian shelling reports Ukraine after Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced a war on Ukraine.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenksy said he unsuccessfully sought talks with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin.  Putin said the clashes between Russian and Ukrainian forces are “inevitable”. Putin even called on Ukrainian service members to “lay down their arms and go home”. He said the special military action was “aimed at demilitarisation and denazification of Ukraine”.

Zelenksy said a “major war in Europe” could be started by Russia soon. Volodymyr Zelenksy’s statement comes even as Ukraine faces threats of the Russian invasion. The Ukrainian government closed airports in eastern Ukraine from midnight through 7 am because of the confrontation with Russia.

Besides this, the United Nations Security Council is holding an emergency meeting at the request of Ukraine.

Russia’s defense ministry said it had neutralized Ukrainian military airbases and its air defense systems.

In his televised address, Putin justified the operation by claiming the government was overseeing a “genocide” in the east of the country.

The Kremlin had earlier said rebel leaders in eastern Ukraine had asked Moscow for military help against Kyiv.

Videos of the war are released on Twitter:
