It remains unclear at press time if it will be able to pass any resolutions, much less take action, given that Russia has veto powers on the body.<\/p>\n<p>Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014, colonizing its Crimean peninsula and starting a war in the eastern Donbas region that Moscow has now used as an excuse to attack the rest of the country. In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/asia\/2022\/02\/21\/ukraine-completely-created-russia-putin-recognizes-sovereignty-pro-russian-separatists\/\">remarks<\/a> on Monday, Putin proclaimed that Ukraine was a fabrication of Vladimir Lenin\u2019s and did not have a \u201ctradition\u201d of being a real country.<\/p>\n<p>The speech was nominally to announce that Putin would recognize the two regions of Donbas, Donetsk and Lugansk, as sovereign states independent of Ukraine. Thursday\u2019s attack, according to the Kremlin, was at the request of those sovereign \u201cstates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ukrinform, a Ukrainian state media outlet, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukrinform.net\/rubric-defense\/3410866-ukrainian-military-facilities-attacked-russia-goes-on-the-offensive.html\">reported<\/a> on Thursday that the Russian military had attacked\u00a0at least five major cities outside of Donbas overnight: Odessa, Kyiv, Kharkiv, Dnipro, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukrinform.net\/rubric-ato\/3411483-mariupol-comes-under-smerch-mlrs-fire-three-civilians-killed-seven-wounded.html\">Mariupol<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe invasion has begun. There have just been missile strikes on military command centers, airfields, and military depots in Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Dnipro. There are artillery shelling of the border,\u201d Adviser to the Minister of Internal Affairs Anton Herashchenko confirmed, according to Ukrinform.<\/p>\n<p>The state outlet later reported that the critical port city of Mariupol had been attacked by \u201cSmerch multiple launch rocket systems\u201d in its residential areas. Ukrainian officials have confirmed at least three deaths in the city.<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Frances Martel on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/francesimartel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/francesimartel\/&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1645618806696000&#038;usg=AOvVaw3CCIT0IfyZXJ0axgUhLn63\">Facebook<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/francesmartel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/twitter.com\/francesmartel&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1645618806696000&#038;usg=AOvVaw1wKwV8ZcnPyWXjThf6jyKy\">Twitter.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United Nations Security Council held its second meeting this week on Russian aggression against Ukraine late Tuesday \u2013 a meeting presided over by the Russian ambassador ending with Ukraine\u2019s<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1339907","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1339907","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1339907"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1339907\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1339907"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1339907"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1339907"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
