0:41Now PlayingUkrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said Monday he will release prisoners with combat experience to defend the country.
Ukraine is also training people to make firebombs.
With Russian troops closing in around Kyiv, a city of almost 3 million, the mayor of the capital has expressed doubt that civilians could be evacuated.
Authorities have been handing out weapons to anyone willing to defend the city.
Zelenskiy also said 16 Ukrainian children have been killed and another 45 have been injured in the Russian invasion.
The Ukrainian president said that over 4,500 Russian troops have been killed and called on Russian soldiers to lay down their weapons and leave.
"Don't trust your commanders, don't trust your propaganda, just save your lives," he said.
