Ukraine has initiated an urgent meeting of the UN Security Council and a special meeting of the OSCE Permanent Council following Russia's deadly attack on Kryvyi Rih, Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha wrote on X. Meetings are scheduled for today.
On April 4, Russia launched an attack on Kryvyi Rih, resulting in the deaths of 20 people and leaving 75 others injured. Despite Russia's claims that the strike was aimed at military targets, recently released security footage shows that no military personnel were present during the attack.
"Russia’s ballistic strike on Kryvyi Rih last week killed nine children, marking the largest number of Ukrainian children killed in a single attack since 2022. The attack specifically targeted playgrounds in a residential area, using a cluster warhead to maximize casualties," Sybiha stated.
The UN Security Council and OSCE meetings, scheduled for April 8, "will help to advance peace efforts and accountability."
