One month into Russia's invasion, Ukraine is scarred, wounded and mourning its dead. But it's far from beaten. A look at where things stand after four weeks.
KYIV, Ukraine — One month of war, still defiant. With its government still standing and its outnumbered troops battling Russian forces to bloody stalemates on multiple fronts, Ukraine is scarred, wounded and mourning its dead but far from beaten.
As Biden left the White House on Wednesday for the flight to Europe, he warned there is a"real threat" Russia could use chemical weapons and said he will discuss that danger with the other leaders. Repeatedly pushed back by hit-and-run Ukrainian units armed with Western-supplied weapons, Russian troops are shelling targets from afar, falling back on tactics they used in reducing cities to ruins in Syria and Chechnya.
Zelenskyy said 100,000 civilians remain in the city, which had a pre-war population of 430,000. It has been shattered by strikes from air, land and sea, and repeated efforts to get desperately needed food and other supplies to those trapped have often failed. The head of the International Committee of the Red Cross traveled Wednesday to Moscow for discussions with Russian officials on humanitarian aid, prisoners of war, and other matters.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov insisted that the military operation is going"strictly in accordance with the plans and purposes that were established beforehand." Western officials say that Ukrainian resistance has halted much of Russia's advance and that Putin's forces are facing serious shortages of food, fuel and cold weather gear, with some soldiers suffering frostbite.
