Here in Ukraine, we’ve been hearing today from Prosecutor General Andriy Kostin, who says he is confident Russia will face justice for war crimes.
Kostin said more than 68,000 war crimes had reportedly been carried out by Russia in Ukraine since the invasion nearly a year ago.
More than 9,600 civilians, including 461 children, had been killed, he said.
Kostin also said some 450 medical facilities had been hit since the invasion.
“Since 24 February 2022, there isn’t a day that the prosecutor’s office hasn’t worked,” he told reporters.
Kostin said war crimes were already being prosecuted and that going forward 99% of the hearings would be carried out in Ukraine, but with international support.
“We should make sure the aggressor is punished, otherwise he will think that he can commit war crimes in other countries as well,” he said.
Russia denies its troops intentionally target civilians or have committed atrocities in occupied areas.
