Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said 137 civilians and military personnel have been killed so far in the Russian invasion of his country.
He called them "heroes" in a video address released early Friday in which he also said hundreds more have been wounded.
Zelenskyy says that despite Russia`s claim it is attacking only military targets, civilian sites also have been struck. In his words: "They`re killing people and turning peaceful cities into military targets. It`s foul and will never be forgiven."
The president said all border guards on Zmiinyi island in the Odesa region were killed on Thursday. Ukraine`s border guard service earlier in the day reported that the island was taken by the Russians.
