Following a barrage of airstrikes on cities and military bases, Ukraine’s president, Volodimir Zelensky, has reacted after US president, Joe Biden offered to evacuate him out of his country’s capital Kyiv, as Russian forces attempt to close in on the region.

‘The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride,’ according to a senior American intelligence official with direct knowledge of the conversation

Earlier, Zelensky said in a televised speech: ‘This night they will launch an assault. The enemy will use all of their power on all fronts to break our defense. This night we have to stand ground. The fate of Ukraine is being decided now.’

On Friday, a second Russian Ilyushin Il-76 military transport plane was shot down near Bila Tserkva, 50 miles south of Kyiv, according to two American security officials .
