That's provided the West's NATO allies time to meet in Brussels on how to make Russia's offensive as painful as possible for President Vladimir Putin — without triggering a nuclear war.On that, Russia issued an unsubtle warning, answered Thursday by France.

Senior Russian official Dmitry Rogozin said in televised remarks that "within minutes at any distance," the country’s nuclear arsenal would help deter the West from intervening in Ukraine.

He then named several types of nuclear weapons Moscow is considering using in the conflict.Meanwhile, Russia's stock market reopened for limited trading Thursday.RELATED: Zelenskyy pleads for aid as Biden, Western allies begin summits on Russian warHere are some key things to know about the Russia-Ukraine war:Zelenskyy is calling on people worldwide to gather in public Thursday to show support for his embattled country as he prepared to address U.S.

Poland's president compares Russian bombing of Mariupol to Nazi war crimes
MEDYKA, Poland (AP) - The president of Poland compared Russia’s attacks on Ukraine to Nazi forces during World War II, saying Tuesday that besieged Mariupol looks like Warsaw in 1944 after the Germans bombed houses and killed civilians "with no mercy at all."President Andrzej Duda, who will host President Joe Biden later this week in a Warsaw rebuilt from the ashes of that war, spoke as traumatized people bearing witness to the horrors inflicted on Ukraine by Russian forces continued to flee. They arrived by the thousands in Poland and other neighboring nations.The United Nations refugee agency announced a staggering milestone Tuesday: More than 3.5 million refugees have now left the country.Among them was Viktoria Totsen, a 39-year-old from Mariupol who entered Poland as part of an exodus that has become Europe’s worst refugee crisis since World War II.She described how the bombing by Russian planes had become incessant, prompting her to flee with her two daughters."During the last five days the planes were flying over us every five seconds and dropped bombs everywhere," she said.Military personnel are seen as civilians being evacuated along humanitarian corridors from the Ukrainian city of Mariupol besieged by Russian military and rebel forces, on March 20, 2022.
