“As of the beginning of this week, more than 87,000 war crimes were registered in Ukraine. These are only those who have been registered. We understand that there are more of them. Almost 10,000 civilians were killed as a result of war crimes. Again, this is only what has already been registered,” informed the Head of the Parliamentary Committee on Legal Policy in Ukraine.
Denys Maslov added that 461 children were killed in Ukraine as a result of Russia’s armed aggression. This statistic is growing every day.
“All of this would not have happened if not for the original crime. There would have been no murders, torture, rape, or kidnapping if not for the original crime – the crime of aggression, which was committed by the Russian Federation, not on February 24, 2022, but much earlier, back in 2014, and this crime was planned even before that,” emphasized the Head of the Parliamentary Committee on Legal Policy in Ukraine.
