Because of fears of air raids on Russia’s Victory Day, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called on his country’s citizens to be particularly disciplined. “I ask all our citizens – and especially these days – not to ignore the air alert,” said the head of state on Friday in his evening video address. “Please, this is your life, your children’s life.”
Ukrainians should strictly follow the orders of the authorities and adhere to local curfews. Zelenskyy said it was forbidden to enter forests occupied by the Russian military because of the danger of mines.

According to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Ukraine is looking for ways to save its soldiers from the embattled Azovstal steelworks in Mariupol. “Influential mediators, influential states” are involved, Zelenskyj said in a video speech on Friday evening.
