“We are deeply alarmed by the continued Russian bombardment of Ukrainian cities, including the recent strikes on Kharkiv, Kherson, Dnipro as well as last week’s deadly attack on Kryvyi Rih. We recall that directing attacks against civilians and civilian objects, is prohibited under international humanitarian law, and any such attacks, wherever they occur, must end immediately. We reiterate the Secretary-General’s call for a durable ceasefire, and our support for meaningful efforts towards a just, lasting and comprehensive peace that fully upholds Ukraine’s sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity, in line with the UN Charter, international law, and relevant United Nations resolutions. Immediately following the attack in Kryvyi Rih, complementing the efforts of local first responders, we, along with our humanitarian partners, as well as the Ukrainian Red Cross, provided first aid and psychological support. We and our partners also assisted with medical evacuations, delivered emergency surgical supplies to local hospitals, organized hot meals and distributed other materials.”
