The Commissioner of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine for Human Rights, Dmytro Lubinets, called the shelling of a medical facility in Kherson by Russian troops another war crime.
He wrote this on his Telegram.
The ombudsman also urged the international community to respond more decisively to Russian attacks.
“This is another war crime by the Russian Federation, which deliberately attacks civilian objects, grossly violating the norms of international humanitarian law. I call on the international community to respond decisively. Until Russia is held accountable, no person in Ukraine can feel safe!”, – Lubinets stressed.
Recall that on October 29, 2025, at around 09:20 the Russian army shelled a children’s hospital in the Dnipro district of Kherson.
