War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity
Russian forces in Ukraine have committed and continue to commit war crimes and crimes against humanity in the occupied regions of Ukraine, in violation of international law and basic human decency. Russian crimes in Ukraine constitute genocide and ethnic cleansing, with Russia’s stated war aims including the elimination of Ukrainians as a separate country, language, culture, and people.
No especially notable atrocities reported today.
Overview
The European Union gave another $1.65 billion in financial assistance to Ukraine, part of an earlier $19.6 billion package.
The United States warned that Iran has supplied Russia with bombs and is likely intending to supply Russia with missiles (something which has been repeatedly discussed but has yet to take place).
