Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told EU leaders “this might be the last time you see me alive” during a video conference on Thursday night, two European sources briefed on the call told the news site Axios.

The Pentagon has warned that Russia’s primary aim appears to be to encircle Kyiv and “decapitate” its government. Meanwhile, Zelensky said Thursday that Russian “sabotage forces” were in Kyiv and hunting for him and his family.
