Russia Ukraine Crisis Live: The north-eastern Ukrainian city of Sumy, where about 700-odd Indian students remain stranded awaiting evacuation, is among the cities where the Russian military will hold fire and open humanitarian corridors on Monday, Russia’s Defence Ministry informed. The other towns include capital Kyiv, Kharkiv and Mariupol.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to hold telephonic conversations with Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russian President Vladimir Putin today, sources said. Late last night, Zelenskyy delivered an impassioned address to his nation, warning Russian troops that he will punish those who committed atrocities in Ukraine while the “only quiet place” that awaits them is the grave. “Today is Forgiveness Sunday. But we will not forgive hundreds and hundreds of victims. Thousands and thousands of sufferings. Instead of Forgiveness, there will be a Day of Judgment,” Zelenskyy added.

However, Russian forces launched a heavy artillery barrage against the strategic southern Ukrainian port city of Mykolaiv early Monday morning, a day after Ukrainian troops pushed them from the city limits.
