Ukraine marks its independence day as peace push shows little sign of progress
Ukraine celebrated its independence from the Soviet Union Sunday, three and a half years into a war that has killed tens of thousands of people and left almost one fifth of the country occupied by Russian forces. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told a crowd in Kyiv that the country would fight on, saying his calls for peace had been "ignored" by Moscow.
