The so-called referendums that have been going on for the past five days in Russian-occupied areas of Ukraine have come to an end. With all votes reportedly counted, the results show exactly the kind of majority in favor of joining Russia that has prompted many to consider the referendums a ”sham” that violated international law.’ Ukrainian President Zelensky says Moscow plans to annex the regions in Ukraine and will force people to join the Russian military, saying ‘either you are killed, or you kill.’ Welcome to ‘UKRAINE WAR: DAY 216’

The affects of the pandemic has hit these communities hard, with 10 million Nigerian children still not in school.

The recent Ukrainian counter attack has forced Russian troops into a rapid retreat as Ukraine retakes areas from Russian control. Russia still holds about a fifth of the country, but the retreat is being seen by many analysts as significant with the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) claiming that Ukrainian troops have inflicted a ‘major operational defeat’ on Russian forces. Mr Zelensky says: ‘Our main goal is to de-occupy our whole territory.’ Welcome to ‘UKRAINE WAR: DAY 203’
