Ukraine War Casts Shadow Over Russia's Victory Day Celebrations.

As Russia prepares to celebrate Victory Day on May 9, commemorating the Soviet Union's role in defeating the Nazis in World War II, Ukraine is assessing the damage from missile strikes in Odesa. Meanwhile, Ukraine claims to have downed a Russian hypersonic missile over Kyiv using American Patriot defense systems. President Zelenskyy visited Finland and the Netherlands, calling for a special tribunal to try Russian leaders. More than 1,600 residents were evacuated from around Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, and the White House estimates over 20,000 Russian troops have been killed in Ukraine since December.
