A teenager was overwhelmed when Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy shook her hand and gave her flowers during a visit to people wounded by Russian attacks at a Kyiv hospital on Thursday.
Sixteen-year-old Katya Vlasenko, who was wounded when the car her family was travelling in came under fire, told the president he was a hero on social media platform TikTok, to which Zelenskiy responded: 'Oh yes? So we have occupied TikTok?'
Katya's family was trying to escape fighting in the area north-west of the capital Kyiv when their car came under fire near Hostomel
