A motorist collided with a vehicle carrying Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as his motorcade passed through Kyiv, but the president was unharmed.

“In Kyiv, a passenger car collided with the car of the Ukrainian president and escort vehicles,” spokesman Sergiy Nikiforov said in a statement posted on Facebook at 1:22 am local time (22:22 GMT).

“Medics accompanying the President provided the driver of the passenger car with emergency aid and transferred him to an ambulance,” he continued.

“The president was examined by a doctor, no serious injuries were detected. The law enforcement officers will investigate all the circumstances of the accident.”

Zelensky said in his nightly televised address, which was broadcast shortly after the accident, that he had just returned from the area around Kharkiv, adding that “almost the entire region is de-occupied” after a lightning counter offensive to dislodge Russian troops.

“It was an unprecedented movement of our soldiers — the Ukrainians once again managed to do what many thought was impossible,” Zelensky said.

Ukraine’s war is entering a decisive phase, with Kiev’s forces expelling Russian troops from large swaths of the east, appearing to seriously challenge Moscow’s ambition to capture the entire Donbas region.
