Moscow: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is urging global leaders to provide defense assistance to Ukraine and help protect its airspace from Russia.

In a statement that comes amid Russia's wide-ranging attack on Ukraine that began early Thursday, Zelenskyy said that Russia has unleased a war with Ukraine and the entire democratic world.

He asked for world leaders to provide large-scale defence support and to protect Ukraine's airspace from the aggressor.
