Ukraine mourns and vows victory 1 year into invasion
On the anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the country honored its fallen soldiers and vowed to continue fighting. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy awarded medals to soldiers and the families of those killed, stating that Ukrainians have become a united family amidst the conflict. Zelenskiy also called for more Western weaponry and attended an online summit with US President Joe Biden and other G7 leaders, who pledged to intensify their support.

Meanwhile, Russia faced new Western sanctions, including a $2 billion military aid package to Ukraine and additional sanctions on Russian mining and metals industries. Despite the support, Biden ruled out sending F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine.

The conflict shows no signs of slowing down, with Ukraine's military reporting that Russia has doubled the number of ships on active duty in the Black Sea and predicting more missile strikes. In Russia, a human rights group reported dozens of people being detained by police for commemorating victims of the invasion.

Despite strong support for Ukraine in the West, major developing nations like China and India have not imposed sanctions on Moscow. China called for a ceasefire, while India made no mention of the conflict during a G20 meeting. The conflict has claimed tens of thousands of lives and left Ukraine with occupied territory still under Russian control.
