Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was involved in a car crash in Kyiv that wounded his driver but left the leader unharmed, the president’s spokesman said Thursday local time.
Serhiy Nikiforov announced in a statement that there were no serious injuries, and the president was cleared after being examined by medics.
