Several thousand protesters gathered in the Place de la Republique in Paris on Saturday to express their solidarity with Ukraine and opposition to the Russian invasion.

Many waved Ukrainian national flags and banners denouncing President Vladimir Putin, as the crowd chanted: "Putin, murderer."

In London, crowds took to the streets to protest against the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The protesters, several of whom were of Ukrainian descents, chanted anti-Putin slogan and called for the British government to issue more sanctions against Russia and called for a no-fly zone imposed by NATO over Ukraine.

Representatives of various Christian churches also joined the protest and prayed for peace.

Putin has said any attempt by another power to impose a no-fly zone in Ukraine would be considered by Russia to be a step into the military conflict. Such a step he said would have catastrophic consequences for Europe and the world.
