Commissioner O’Flaherty condemns deadly missile attacks on civilian infrastructure in Ukraine

“Russia's deadly missile attacks on civilian infrastructure in Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities yesterday are yet another glaring example of the brutality of Russian forces and their leadership.  The bombing of Kyiv's Okhmatdyt hospital, a sanctuary for children and the country’s largest pediatric hospital, is a particularly grim illustration of the terrible toll Russia’s aggression has had on the dignity, safety and human rights of Ukrainian people, including countless children.

My thoughts are with the victims, their families, medical workers, and rescuers working tirelessly to save lives amid the destruction and chaos. The international community's solidarity with the people of Ukraine must remain unwavering. The perpetrators of this abhorrent act and all other international crimes committed in Ukraine must be held accountable, and all victims must receive adequate redress."
