Bhubaneswar: The Russian invasion in Ukraine entered day 11 on Sunday. Scores of civilians have lost their lives in the conflict. On Saturday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksy repeatedly asked the U.S. and NATO to establish a no-fly zone over Ukraine. However, the West turned down the plea, given the likelihood that would lead to a wider war with Russia.
