But we begin with the war in Ukraine -- and Russian President Vladimir Putin used an annual Moscow parade -- held to mark victory in World War 2 -- as an occasion to justify the invasion with false claims and propaganda. The parade in Moscow came just hours after Russian forces allegedly bombed a school where dozens of civilians were sheltering, in the east of the country.
