An interpreter translating Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's speech broke down while conveying his words

• An interpreter translating Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's speech broke down on the air.
• The translator was heard pausing and choking up while conveying Zelensky's words.

An interpreter for a German news outlet was heard breaking down on the air while translating Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's speech on Sunday.

In a video of the speech, the unidentified interpreter for Welt could be heard translating into German a part of Zelensky's speech in which he said: "Russia is on the path of evil. The world must deprive Russia of the right to vote on the UN Security Council."

The interpreter then slowed down and choked up while delivering the next lines: "Ukrainians, we know exactly what we are defending. We will definitely win."

Zelensky was addressing Ukrainians after several cities came under attack Saturday night.

"Last night was brutal in Ukraine. Again, the shelling, again the bombing of residential areas and civilian infrastructure," Zelensky said.

"We will fight as long as it takes to liberate the country. 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!" he added.

Ukraine's Interior Ministry says 352 Ukrainians have died during Russia's invasion of the country. In a separate interview with the Associated Press, Mayor Vitali Klitschko of Kyiv said the Ukrainian capital was "encircled," though a representative later said he had misspoken.

Ukraine's second-largest city, Kharkiv, is also under siege, and its 1.4 million residents have been asked to take shelter.
