Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Saturday pledged to liberate country's territories occupied by Russian forces since the beginning of the invasion.

In his nightly address he said:  "We have already managed to liberate part of the territory occupied after February 24. We will also gradually liberate other parts of our country that are currently under the occupation."

Zelenskyy also lashed out at what he called Russian propaganda about an alleged attack on Ukraine Wednesday.

"How many people have been scared today by the fake news about the massive Russian missile attack on Ukraine? After everything that has happened in the previous weeks. After Dnipro, Vinnytsia, Chasiv Yar. How many nerves are being ruined everyday by spreading horror stories from Russian propagandists," he said.
