On the morning of February 24, Putin announced the start of a special operation in Ukraine and the entry of Russian troops into the Donbass. After that, at 05:00, the aggressor country launched rocket attacks on Ukrainian cities.

As the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine soon explained, the invasion began with an attack on airfields, military depots in Kyiv, Kharkov and the Dnieper, as well as on the state border in the area with Russia, Belarus and the occupied Crimea.

During these two months of the war, the world saw a high level of Russian cruelty. Air strikes devastated hospitals, maternity hospitals, schools, and residential buildings. A lot of civilians died, including children. In the cities liberated from Russian troops, facts of murders, rape of women and children, and looting were recorded.
Residents of Mariupol and other cities of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions, captured by the Russians, are forcibly taken out by the Russians to the territory of Russia and their documents and phones are taken away.

Under such conditions, many women, children and the elderly were forced to leave the territory of Ukraine and seek protection in other countries.

Russia did not expect such tough resistance from the Ukrainians and was not ready for it. The number of Russian military killed and wounded is now more than 20 thousand. Ukraine-Russian War 2022: Real Losses is here https://uawar.net/stats
