This past week, Ukrainians marked a month since Vladimir Putin launched his brutal invasion of their country, bombarding its cities and killing more than a thousand civilians, according to the United Nations.But Russia's ground invasion has been stymied by Ukrainian counter-attacks and the Russians are stalled outside the capital Kyiv. Between 7,000 and 15,000 Russian troops have been killed, according to a NATO official.

His daughter Katya was killed, leaving behind a 1-year-old baby girl.
