Russian forces have killed more Ukrainian civilians than soldiers in the two weeks since the invasion began, according to Ukrainian Defence Minister Oleksii Reznikov.
“I want this to be heard not only in Kyiv but all over the world,” he says.
His comments come as Russian forces appear to be widening their assault on the country – launching attacks on cities on opposite sides of the country.
Having suffered devastating losses, the Russian occupiers launched a terrorist war. They behave like criminals and cowards. They kill and take civilians, women, and children hostage. As of March 10, the number of Ukrainian civilians killed by Russian invaders exceeds the number of military fallen in fighting. I want this to be heard not only in Ukraine, but all over the world. The Kremlin is bombing schools, clinics, and maternity hospitals. Moscow does not protect anyone – it destroys. They are not able to fight against our army, national guard, territorial defense, so they attack the most vulnerable,
He issued an assurance that Ukraine would take vengeance for every Ukrainian, and every Russian terrorist would be held accountable for crimes against humanity. The lists of participants in the invasion and their accomplices will be submitted to all relevant institutions.
No one will go unpunished for all the horrors and evil they have brought to Ukraine and the world, the minister said.
