First look inside wartime shelter: Zelenskyy unveils hidden bunker beneath presidential office
![]() 1038 Tuesday, 24 February, 2026, 12:01 President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy, for the first time, showed a bunker beneath the Office building on Bankova Street in Kyiv and his working office, reports the head of state. "This office, this small room in the bunker on Bankova Street — this is where I held my first conversations with world leaders at the start of the war. Here, I spoke with the President (former US President Joe Biden — ed.) Biden, and it was right here that I heard: 'Volodymyr, there is a threat, you need to leave Ukraine urgently. We are ready to help with that.' And here I replied that I need ammunition, not a ride," the president said. |
