Zelenskyy Signs Decree Recalling Ukrainian Peace Keeping Forces

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed a decree on Tuesday, recalling Ukrainian peacekeepers to defend the country.

The decree declares that all soldiers and equipment dedicated to U.N. peacekeeping operations must return to Ukraine to assist in the war effort.

Ukraine’s Infrastructure Minister, Oleksandr Kubrakov, said that his country had suffered infrastructure damage estimated at $10 billion since the "Russian invasion" began.

On Tuesday, the Russian-Ukrainian war entered its twelfth day in a row, after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the launching of military operations in Ukraine on the morning of February 24.

European, Western and American countries imposed huge economic sanctions on Russia. The sanctions also targeted Moscow’s leaders, led by President Vladimir Putin and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
