Ukraine's President invoked the horror of the 2001 terror attacks on the US as he pleaded for more military aid in a historic address to the US Congress.
Volodymyr Zelensky said via video link that Ukraine was enduring a 9/11 every day as it battled Russian forces.
He again urged the US and Nato allies to enforce a no-fly zone over Ukraine, saying he needs to protect the sky.
US President Joe Biden is later set to sign off an extra US $800 million in military aid to Ukraine.
Zelensky urged the assembled US politicians to remember coming under attack in the past - at Pearl Harbor in 1941 and on 11 September 2001 - saying Ukrainians were experiencing the same thing every day.
The Ukrainian leader also showed a video of missile strikes on his country's cities and the resulting dead and wounded people.
