As Russia's war in Ukraine reaches 100 days, Kyiv is determined to take back the land lost since President Vladimir Putin launched his invasion.

“I feel guilty that we didn’t do more earlier on, but now having lived under occupation for just one month, I understand so much better now what they are going through — the exhaustion, the fear.” I will pick up a gun and fight myself if I need to,” she said, as she worked to clean up her house that was damaged when Russian forces occupied the region. Since the war started on Feb. 24, Ukrainian forces have successfully pushed Russia out of territory around the capital city of Kyiv, as well as Kharkiv in the northeast. Zelenskyy has acknowledged that the war will only end through a diplomatic solution rather than a military victory. “We will fight to the end. “If not, then what are we suffering for?”

It's day 100 of Russia's war in Ukraine, which the Kremlin is still calling its "special military operation."

However, while in theory output will be higher in the future, OPEC+ has been struggling to meet production quotas. Russia is starting military drills in the Pacific involving some 40 ships and 20 aircraft. If we have something concrete to announce, we will do so." It's day 100 of Russia's war in Ukraine, which the Kremlin is still calling its "special military operation." Among those objectives was the aim to seize Kyiv and Ukrainian centers of government. "We've seen a lot of positive statements coming from various capitals," Dujarric said.

After months of tension, and despite many believing it simply could not happen, Russian troops invaded Ukraine 100 days ago. The ensuing fighting has caused ...

Despite strong Ukrainian resistance, the war is now believed to have entered a new and deadly phase in the country’s east. As people returned they found little left of what had been their homes. Although Russian President Vladimir Putin expected his “special military operation” to be over in just a few days, attempts to move hard and fast to take major cities such as Kyiv failed. It is impossible to overstate how much the lives of the people Al Jazeera met have changed. In a local children’s hospital, 13-year-old Milena was shot in the neck by Russian troops as she tried to flee the city with her family. Her little body convulsed in pain as medical staff worked to comfort her – one of the many lives changed forever before they barely even began.

Several US companies — most recently the McDonalds and Starbucks — left Russia in the aftermath of the war. Spoke with 🇮🇳 Prime Minister@narendramodi. Informed of the course of 🇺🇦 repulsing 🇷🇺 aggression. An AP report put the official estimate of Russian troops wounded at around 40,000. Overall, around 19,000 Indian students in Ukraine were brought back to India after the war broke out, according to official estimates. Images of highways out of Kyiv jam-packed with cars, tearful goodbyes at railway stations and civilians armed with military-grade weapons filled social media platforms as Russian troops started bombing Ukrainian targets. Urged 🇮🇳 to give us political support in🇺🇳 Security Council. Stop the aggressor together! The initial days of the war coincided with the rise in the global profile of Ukraine’s comedian-turned-president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, with the Western media dubbing him “the modern Churchill”. In the information vortex that followed the invasion, Zelenskyy took to Twitter and Instagram videos from landmark sites in Kyiv to assure Ukrainians that he has not left the country and that he is working with the world leaders to rally support in the form of sanctions on Russia, financial aid to Ukraine, and arms and ammunition for its fighters. Zelenskyy spoke with Prime Minister Narendra Modi two days after the invasion and sought India’s “political support” at the UNSC. India, which has called for a peaceful solution to the Russia-Ukraine crisis has, however, abstained from voting against Russia in the UN Security Council. The PMO’s office said in a statement that PM Modi reiterated his call for “immediate cessation of violence” and return to dialogue, and conveyed “India’s willingness to contribute in any way towards peace efforts.” His body was brought back to India and donated to SS Institute of Medical Sciences and Research Centre in Davanagere by his family. “Russian troops continued operations to capture Severodonetsk and further operations to capture Lysychansk. Russian military leadership will likely use the capture of these two cities to claim they have “liberated” all of Luhansk Oblast before turning to Donetsk Oblast but Russian forces are unlikely to have the forces necessary to take substantial territory in Donetsk Oblast after suffering further losses around Severodonetsk,” as per a report by the Institue of Study of War. While Russia has said that it has created administrational units in several of its occupied territories, an ISW report, quoting the Ukrainian Resistance Center, observed that several of these units are “‘created [only] on paper’ and are incapable of controlling local populations, enforcing the use of the Russian ruble, or conducting bureaucratic processes.” Russia Ukraine War Live, Mariupol Fall to Russia: Hundred days ago, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a special operation to “denazify” Ukraine. Since then, the war has shown no sign of abating with both Ukrainian and Russian troops claiming victories in various parts of the country.

The United Nations recorded 4,183 confirmed civilian deaths across Ukraine from the time of the Russian invasion through Thursday, according to the office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights. That official toll omits areas, including those occupied by Russian forces, where counting the number of Ukrainian victims isn’t possible. Most of them were killed by small arms, not during explosions,” Mr. Nebytov said on a national news broadcast, according to online newspaper Ukrainian Pravda. The Kyiv city military administration said separately that 95 civilians, including four children, had been killed by Russian missile strikes on Kyiv since the invasion began on Feb. 24. The bodies of 1,314 civilians have been found so far in the region around the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, regional Police Chief Andriy Nebytov said, according to local reports, as efforts to recover victims of the Russian occupation continued.

Oleg Kryuchkov, an official in Russia-annexed Crimea, said this week that the two southern regions have switched to Russian internet providers. Kryuchkov also said that both regions are switching to the Russian country code, +7, from the Ukrainian +380. An office of Russia’s migration services opened in Melitopol, taking applications for Russian citizenship from residents of the captured southern regions through a fast-track procedure. Russian forces captured much of Kherson and neighboring Zaporizhzhia early in the war, gaining control over most of Ukraine’s Sea of Azov coast and securing a partial land corridor to the Crimean Peninsula, which Russia annexed from Ukraine in 2014. Russian flags were raised, and Russian state broadcasts that promoted the Kremlin’s version of the invasion supplanted Ukrainian TV channels. Ukrainian officials warned that Russia might stage a referendum in Kherson to declare the region an independent state. “Hundreds of pro-Ukrainian activists, including my friends, are being held in the basements of security services,” Kobernyk said by phone. Initially, at least, annexing more land from Ukraine was not believed to be the main goal of the invasion. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said it will be up to the people living in seized areas to decide their status. U.S. President Joe Biden, meanwhile, said he believes “there’s going to have to be a negotiated settlement” to end the war. Residents there and in Russia-controlled parts of the Zaporizhzhia region are being offered expedited Russian passports. The Kremlin-installed administrations in both regions have talked about plans to become part of Russia.

The African Development Bank has reported a 45% increase in continental prices for the grain, affecting everything from Mauritanian couscous to the fried donuts sold in Congo. And we know what is needed the most: An end to this war." And the Russian Central Bank said last week that annualized inflation came in at 17.8 percent in April. Zelenskyy accused Russia this week of stealing at least a half-million tons of grain during the invasion. In some places — such as the long-besieged city of Mariupol, potentially the war's biggest killing field — Russian forces are accused of trying to cover up deaths and dumping bodies into mass graves, clouding the overall toll. Developing countries are being squeezed particularly hard by higher costs of food, fuel and financing. It blames a backlog of shipments on Russian blockades or capture of key ports. Evgeny Gontmakher, academic director of European Dialogue, wrote in a paper this week that Russia currently faces over 5,000 targeted sanctions, more than any other country. The official estimated that some 40,000 Russian troops have been wounded. Those images tell just a part of the overall picture of Europe's worst armed conflict in decades. That's down from over 8 million in an earlier count. In Mariupol alone, officials have reported over 21,000 civilian dead.
