One month into Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, fire rained down on a shopping mall and high-rise buildings in Kyiv, as the outnumbered Ukrainian military waged intense battles to defend the capital and other key cities from falling under Russian control. Russian forces have wreaked destruction on cities throughout Ukraine over the past four weeks, but they appear to have stalled in many places in the face of fiercer-than-expected Ukrainian resance.

Nato estimated Wednesday that 7,000 to 15,000 Russian soldiers have been killed since the war started on February 24. On Wednesday, the US made a formal determination that Russia has committed war crimes in Ukraine, as some of the millions who have fled recount tales of horror.
As one woman told The Associated Press: “People are being killed day and night.” And Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called for people around the world to show support for Ukraine on Thursday, which will mark the start of the war’s second month.
