"Make Yourself Visible And Heard" Zelenskyy Calls For Global Demonstration


Ukraine's President has asked people everywhere to take to the streets to show their solidarity with his country.

The demonstration would mark one month since the Russian invasion began.

Hundreds of civilians have been killed and more than three million Ukrainians have fled their country since the war started.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy says it's been a "war against freedom".

In his first address in English, he urged people to "come with peace".

"Come with Ukrainian symbols, come to support life."

"Make yourself visible and heard. Say that people matters, peace matters, Ukraine matters."

The UN General Assembly is due to vote today on a resolution which blames Russia for escalating the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine

NATO is also set to approve major increases in its forces in eastern Europe.

Meanwhile a EU council summit is taking place in Brussels, where further sanctions will be reviewed.

The Taoiseach will be in attendance, along with US President Joe Biden.
