In its statement, the ministry alleged that civilians had been killed in their homes, prisoners of war had been tortured and executed, and Ukrainian children had been separated from their families. The statement said that Russia had completely destroyed neighbourhoods and cities, adding that hospitals, schools, universities, cafés, shops, and kindergartens had also been targeted in attacks.

The statement, which claimed that attacks against civilians had intensified in recent months, emphasized that Russia's actions must face real consequences. Ukraine's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said, "Russia must receive a clear message that its crimes will not go unpunished."

The ministry called on its international partners to increase pressure on Russia and expand support aimed at strengthening Ukraine's defence capabilities.
