Russia appealed to the UN after the Ukrainian Armed Forces struck a humanitarian mission

The Commissioner for Human Rights in Russia, Yana Lantratova, appealed to the United Nations (UN) after the attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces (AFU) on the humanitarian mission of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) near Donetsk with a demand to respond to the situation. She stated this on Telegram.

According to her information, a mission truck located next to the warehouse came under fire from Ukrainian drones. At the same time, she clarified that the objects were marked with the symbols of the organization. In this regard, she called the blow not accidental.

“Deliberately targeting protected Red Cross transport is a war crime. The perpetrators must be held accountable in accordance with international law,” Lantratova said.

The Ombudsman also demanded to establish all the circumstances of the strike, identify those responsible and give a legal assessment of their actions.
