Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky promised on October 14, the victory over Russia as his country celebrated its first Defenders Day public holiday since the start of Moscow's invasion almost eight months ago. Defenders Day was established in 2014 to replace a previous February 23 holiday of Soviet origin that is still celebrated in Russia. (Photo by Sergei Supinsky/AFP Photo)
