The Russian invasion stirs international condemnation, roils global markets and a promise by Ukraine's president to defend the country.
Updated February 24, 2022 at 5:23 AM ET
As Russian military forces and Russian-backed separatists continued striking targets across Ukraine on Thursday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called on the public to remain calm while declaring martial law.
Missile strikes and military barrages struck Ukrainian targets from the country's northern, eastern and southern borders.
The strikes drew quick international condemnation of Russia, from capitals across Europe to Asia. The invasion also shook financial markets around the world; global oil and gold prices soared, U.S. stock futures tumbled and indices across Asia recorded significant losses while European markets opened with a downward reaction.

Have a lot of respect for Ukraine president showing himself on kviv streets with some other members of parliament saying we are here. Leading by example. Heard a report or Russian paratroops lost in Kviv asking directions for the center of town that were delayed by the citizens long enough for Ukraine military to take them prisoners. Wondering how much heart these Russian soldiers in this fight.
