UKRAINIAN President Volodomyr Zelensky has demanded the US provide evidence of its claims that Russia plans to invade his country on Wednesday February 16, warning against provoking panic.

He said that he has not seen details regarding Russia’s alleged plans amid claims of a major psy-ops and misinformation campaign being waged through Western media.

“If you have additional, 100 per cent certain information about a Russian invasion of Ukraine, please share it with us. We are aware of all risks and we realise the risks are there,” Mr Zelensky said.
