Zelensky warns Russian offensive only in its 'first wave'

In an exclusive interview with AFP, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says that Russia's offensive in the Kharkiv region this month may only be a "first wave", and Russian troops could aim for the city of Kharkiv.

Russia began its offensive on May 10, forcing thousands of people to flee their homes as Russian troops pounded villages along the border and made their biggest territorial gains in Ukraine since the end of 2022.
