Ukraine Mourners Hope for Peace Amid War
In Ukraine, many people are hoping for peace as the war with Russia continues.
They are burying their loved ones who have died in the fighting.
A new peace plan backed by the U.S. might mean Ukraine has to give up some land.
President Zelenskiy says he won't sign a bad deal, but some people think Ukraine should negotiate to end the war quickly.
Many Ukrainians don't want to give up any land, as they believe their loved ones died fighting for it.
The government is preparing a new cemetery because the current one is almost full.
Mourners in Ukraine hope for peace amid the ongoing war with Russia.
Lychakiv Cemetery in Lviv is nearly full with over 1,000 fallen troops buried.
Ukraine is under pressure to accept a U.S.-backed peace plan that may involve territorial concessions.
President Zelenskiy warns of Ukraine's most difficult moment but vows not to betray Ukraine's interests.
A narrow majority of Ukrainians reject territorial concessions, and many mourners believe their loved ones died fighting for the land.
