Visa-free travel will be allowed starting 1 March for any foreigners wishing to enter Ukraine to fight against Russia, he said.

He also accused Russia of committing a “war crime” in Kharkiv on Monday.

“Dozens of eyewitness accounts prove that this is not a single false volley, but a deliberate destruction of people,” he said, describing the artillery attacks.

“No-one in the world will forgive you for killing peaceful Ukrainians,” he continued, adding: “Evil – armed with missiles, bombs and artillery – must be stopped immediately.

“Destroyed economically. Showed that humanity knows how to defend itself.”

He warned residents of the capital: “For the enemy, Kyiv is a key goal.

“We did not allow them to break the defence of the capital.

“And they send saboteurs to us. Constantly. Hundreds.

“Every one, we neutralise them all.”
