97 Ukrainian children killed in Russian invasion, Zelensky says

Ninety-seven Ukrainian children have died since the start of Russia’s invasion, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says in a speech to Canada’s parliament.

“They’ve already killed 97 Ukrainian children,” Zelensky says in the video address, adding that Russia’s military was “destroying everything: memorial complexes, schools, hospitals, housing complexes.”

“We’re not asking for much. We’re asking for justice, for real support, which will help us to prevail, to defend [ourselves], to save lives,” he says, receiving a standing ovation from lawmakers.
