Russia continues to violate human rights in its illegal war of aggression against Ukraine, including arbitrary detention, torture, enforced disappearances, sexual violence and repression.
The 🇺🇳 has documented over 1,000 cases of sexual violence against civilians and prisoners of war in Ukraine.
Today at the Third Committee, 🇮🇪 called on Russia to immediately cease its widespread violation of human rights in Ukraine, halt its war of aggression and abide by international obligations.
Ireland stands with Ukraine.

Lytvyn wrote poems in captivity and kept them in his memory, with nothing to write on.
Lytvyn: I sleep, and again I dream of war. A ruined city, a broken life. I wake, and again I am in captivity. I want to scream, but I must stay silent. I fall and rise again — Suspilne. 6/

Lytvyn: Mordovia was the worst place. They lined us up and listed what was forbidden. You can't go to the toilet. You can't raise your head. You can't talk to others.
The beatings were the hardest. When they beat you, there is only one thought: stop beating me, leave me alone. 5/

Lytvyn: Lunch was soup that was just water with a few pieces of pasta floating in it. The guards joked: here you have a first course, a second and a salad.
Recently I sat at a christening table full of food. I wished the guys still in captivity could sit there with me. 4/

Lytvyn: In Taganrog they threw us out of the trucks like sacks, hands and legs tied. A man fell ill. Instead of a medic, guards came and beat him: You don't need help anymore.
They beat us and used electroshockers. Even now the sound of one makes me shake. 3/

German Foreign Minister Wadephul on Russia's Lavrov:
There will be no family photo featuring our European partners together with Mr. Lavrov.
There is no normality with Russia. We must not send false visual signals.

OTD in 2001 Ukraine eliminated its last nuclear delivery vehicle under the START treaty. They have been thanked with invasion, war crimes, & "grave concern".

Vladimir Putin has shut down Russia’s last independent newspaper.
The Russian president has ordered the closure of Novaya Gazeta after 33 years. It had previously been placed on a state enemies list.
The newspaper, which is known for its critical coverage of Russian political and social affairs, has been classed as a “foreign agent” by Moscow.

Nothing unusual here. Just Jaime Lannister from Game of Thrones sleeping in a Kyiv metro station.
Actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is visiting Ukraine in his role as a UNDP Goodwill Ambassador. Last night, he experienced what millions of Ukrainians know all too well: taking shelter underground during a Russian air raid.
The truth is, nobody likes him — except maybe a few rich kids from South Dublin

Just look at these horrifying images. A father is weeping in despair beside the body of his 15-year-old daughter, whom a Russian missile killed today right in the downtown of Chernihiv.
Russia is the greatest barbarian in the history of humankind🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Je viens d'apprendre avec émotion qu'un drone à réaction russe vient de s'abattre sur la gare de Dnipro, avec un très lourd bilan.
J'adresse au Président @ZelenskyyUa et au peuple ukrainien mes condoléances et notre solidarité.
Nous devons, dans ce contexte, aspirer à bien plus qu'un cessez-le-feu localisé comme celui qui vient d'être négocié localement à Olechky. Il est intolérable que la Russie continue d'opposer son refus à toutes les propositions en ce sens, en continuant de miser sur l'escalade et en visant les civils.
Nous devons ensemble redoubler d'efforts pour une paix juste et durable et amener la Russie à la table des négociations.
At least 17 people have been killed in Russia's latest attacks on Ukrainian cities, including two 15-year-old girls.
In Dnipro, Russian drones struck a railway station, hitting a platform where a commuter train and a scheduled passenger train were standing. At least 13 people were killed and 10 others injured.
In Chernihiv, Russia struck the city centre in broad daylight, when the streets were busy with people. Two 15-year-old girls were killed, and at least nine other people were injured, including children. Homes, businesses, and cars were damaged.
In Kremenchuk, Poltava region, a Russian drone hit a residential apartment building, killing two people and injuring nine, including two children. In Zaporizhzhia, an FPV drone struck a minibus in the city centre, injuring one person.
Russia also attacked a poultry farm in the Kyiv region, where approximately 16,000 birds were kept.
These are ordinary places where people live, work, and travel. Russia continues to attack them, killing civilians and putting more lives at risk.
Russia is not de-escalating its war against Ukraine. Easing sanctions while these attacks continue only weakens pressure on the aggressor. Stronger sanctions against Russia's energy sector and war machine are needed to stop its aggression.
