UNITED NATIONS, 24th Feb. Denise Brown, UN Humanitarian Coordinator in Ukraine on Friday deplored new attacks on the cities of Odesa and Dnipro as the full-scale Russian invasion reached a third year.
She said that the latest strikes in the centre and south occurred on the eve of the solemn commemoration marked two years of war and one day after deadly attacks in the Donestsk region, located in the east.
Denise Brown condemned these attacks on social media X “Today’s attacks on Ukraine are yet another blatant example of the Russian Federation’s disregard for their obligations under international humanitarian law, a grim reality that remains unchanged since the escalation of the war two years ago.”
Ukrainian authorities reported that grain stocks and civilian infrastructure, including a power plant, were hit during the strikes.
UN humanitarian affairs office said aid organizations continue to do all they can to help people affected by ongoing attacks.
They mobilized to provide first aid and critical assistance to people in Odesa and Dnipro, distributing hot drinks and meals as well as repair materials to residents whose homes were damaged, Ms. Brown added.
