Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says "enemy sabotage groups" have entered Kyiv, the capital, as Russian forces close in.

Two loud booms were heard from the city at around 4 a.m. local time. In an address to Ukrainians, Zelensky did not specifically say Russian forces had entered Kyiv, but his reference to "sabotage groups" was interpreted as a sign that the city was in peril. He also said the country has been left to fight alone by NATO despite appeals for help from the alliance. But he remained defiant and urged Ukrainians to fight on.

President Biden has announced sweeping sanctions against Russia for its full-scale attack, saying in a Thursday White House address that the aggression "cannot go unanswered." The sanctions, coordinated with allies, target Russia's elites, its largest state-owned banks and companies throughout its economy.

A senior U.S. defense official said Russia's moves were "clearly designed to take key population centers" and topple Ukraine's democratically elected, pro-Western government.

Meanwhile CNN is reporting:

A senior U.S. defense official said Russia's moves were "clearly designed to take key population centers" and topple Ukraine's democratically elected, pro-Western government.

Officials in the country believe Russia's plan is to overthrow the Ukrainian leadership and install a pro-Russian government.

In a video statement late Thursday, Ukrainian President Volodymr Zelensky said he believes "enemy sabotage groups" had entered Kyiv and that he was their No. 1 target. His family, he said, was the second target.

"They want to destroy Ukraine politically by destroying the head of state," he said, adding he was staying in the government quarter.

5. Russia's plan is to overthrow the Ukrainian leadership and install a pro-Russian government.

That's what Ukrainians had before and they overthrew it to vote for a democratic govrrnment.

So, they will have to do it all over again... that's crazy.
