President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky was involved in a car accident on Wednesday when a vehicle collided with his motorcade. Fortunately, the President escaped the accident unharmed.
The crash was announced via a Facebook post by the president’s spokesman, Serhii Nykyforov. He added that the President was examined by a physician, but no serious injuries were discovered. The car’s driver also survived the collision and was treated at the scene before being transported away by ambulance.
The auto accident occurred several hours after President Zelensky’s visit to the city of Izium to celebrate its recapture from Russian forces. He also participated in the city’s flag-raising ceremony.
The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has lasted for over eight months, and the city of Izium, located in the northwestern region of Kharkiv, served as a strategic point for Russian interests in the region.
