Video: Veteran interpreter breaks into tears while translating Zelenskyy’s speech as Ukraine survives another night



A veteran video interpreter who was translating Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's Sunday speech broke into tears while detailing Ukraine's resolve against attacking Russian forces.

What are the details?

Video shared to social media showed the interpreter — a woman who remains unidentified at the time of this post and working for a German news outlet — pausing, choking up, and finally breaking into tears while translating Zeleskyy's speech while on the air.

Zelenskyy in the speech was describing how the war-torn country had sustained another day of Russian attacks.

"Russia is on the path of evil," Zelenskyy said in the speech. "The world must deprive Russia of the right to vote on the U.N. Security Council."

The interpreter then paused and began to choke up while delivering Zelenskyy's following lines.

"Ukrainians," the country's president continued, "we know exactly what we are defending. We will definitely win. Last night was brutal in Ukraine. Again, the shelling, again the bombing of residential areas and civilian infrastructure."

As she continued speaking, she broke once more and took a breath, reportedly saying "sorry" before going off the air.

Zelenskyy added that the country is set to fight for as long as it takes to "liberate the country" and that Russian forces would only come in heavier and in a more vicious way.

“The night was hard,” he added. “The people rose to defend their state, and they showed their true faces. This is terror. They are going to bomb our Ukrainian cities even more. They are going to kill our children even more insidiously. This is an evil that has come to our land and must be destroyed.”

He added, "If children are born in shelters, even when the shelling continues, then the enemy has no chance in this — undoubtedly — people's war. To victory! Glory to Ukraine!"

Insane doorbell camera video shows Ohio deputy literally dodge a bullet, make shooter pay



What started out as a wellness check instantly turned into an unnerving shootout. Quick reflexes by an Ohio deputy allowed her to literally dodge a bullet in what could have been a fatal encounter.

Officers with the Warren County Sheriff's Office went on a wellness check on Feb. 15 in Mason, Ohio. Law enforcement officers were responding to a 911 call where a man said his brother had taken something and just wanted to go to sleep, WXIX reported.

Doorbell camera footage shows Deputy Sara Vaught outside the front door of the home waiting for the resident to respond. She is seen on video at the door waiting for the homeowner to come outside. She can be heard saying, "Here he is" as the resident opens the door.

Suddenly, the homeowner points a handgun through the door and shoots at Vaught. The dramatic video shows that she barely gets out of the way of the gunfire by slinking down. The gunslinging deputy immediately returns fire from a squatting position.

Vaught fired several shots, which hit the suspect, identified as 56-year-old Lance Runion by the Warren County Sheriff's Office.

Other officers rush towards the firefight and demand the shooter show his hands.

Fellow officers ask Vaught if she is injured, and she breathlessly responds, "I'm good, I'm good, I think. I think I'm good."

Incredibly, Vaught was not hurt at all.

Runion was shot several times, and deputies performed "lifesaving measures" at the scene. He was reportedly in critical but stable condition. Runion is still hospitalized.

Runion is said to have a history of "emotional issues," his brother said, according to the police report. His brother said Runion "used to drink a lot and take pain meds" but had been "clean since July," Law and Crime reported. The brother was reportedly concerned about a possible overdose after Runion sent a text message to family members telling them that he loved them.

The brother allegedly informed police that Runion had guns in the house, but didn't believe he would use them, WCHS reported.

Runion was charged with first-degree attempted murder and first-degree felonious assault in the incident.

Vaught, a deputy since 2014, is currently on administrative leave as an investigation into the shooting is carried out.
