Demonstrators rallied in Manhattan, New York City on the two-year anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Protestors condemned the invasion and opposed Russian President, Vladimir Putin. Last weekend, Russian forces captured the eastern Ukrainian city of Avdiivka located on the front line. The loss of the city comes as a $60 billion aid package for Ukraine from the United States has been stalled following disagreements in Congress. Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, said Ukrainian troops face challenges defending parts of the front line due to ammunition shortages.
