President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Sunday that 31,000 Ukrainian soldiers had been killed during Russia's two-year-old full-scale invasion, disclosing the first official figure for military losses in many months.
The Ukrainian leader told reporters at a news conference that he could not disclose figures for the number of wounded, saying that would help Russian military planning.

A senior White House official on Thursday said nuclear-armed Pakistan is developing long-range ballistic missile capabilities that eventually could allow it to strike targets well beyond South Asia, making it an "emerging threat" to the United States.
A Russian missile strike killed at least one person and damaged buildings across the Ukrainian capital during the morning rush hour on Friday, city officials said.
