Hundreds of people rallied in the southern Ukrainian city of Kherson on Saturday to protest against the Russian occupation there.
Russian forces have captured the vital Black Sea port — the first major city to fall since the invasion started over a week ago.
As protesters took to the streets, local media reported that some armed men fired shots in the air to disperse the crowd.
A video distributed by Ukraine's Defense Forces showed people waving Ukrainian flags and chanting "Kherson is Ukraine."
