No end in sight as Ukraine war marks first anniversary

Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | The Russian invasion of Ukraine marked its first anniversary with no clear signal of when the war would end. US President Joe Biden made a surprise visit to Kyiv, Ukraine days to the anniversary in a highly classified operation that caught many countries by surprise.

Thousands of Ukrainians have died in the war as Russia continues to throw bombs and roll its tanks into its neighbour.
