HUMANITARIAN COORDINATOR FOR UKRAINE MATTHIAS SCHMALE CONDEMNS MASSIVE ATTACK BY THE RUSSIAN ARMED FORCES ACROSS UKRAINE
Like millions of people in Ukraine I spent hours in a shelter this morning because of the ongoing wave of attacks on Ukraine by the Russian Armed Forces.
The attacks have reportedly resulted in civilians both killed and injured and heavy damage to civilian infrastructure.
It is unacceptable that instead of getting on with their lives, the citizens of this country are having to seek safety in metro stations and other shelters.
Even in war there are rules. International humanitarian law must be respected. Civilians must be protected.
