Russo-Ukrainian War on a Map (Ukraine War)

Since February 2022, there has been an ongoing conflict in Ukraine, and to raise a bit of awareness and at the same time inform you a bit more about this topic, I made this quiz. I would just like to clarify I am NOT picking sides. Good luck have fun!
Answers are accepted in romanised versions of the Ukrainian/Russian languange
I tried making the hints as unbiased as possible
Major updates will occur about every 6 months (twice a year) until the war ends
