In part one of How it Happened: Putin's Invasion, Axios' Dave Lawler presents reporting and analysis from the Axios newsroom on the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Russian military shelling started a fire at Europe’s largest nuclear power plant in southern Ukraine overnight. The fire is out and the nuclear plant appears safe, but Russian forces are now in control of the facility. In an emotional early morning video, Ukrainian President Zelensky warned the world about Russian "nuclear terror."
