“Doctors fought for his life, but they were unable to save the man.”

Systematic attacks and international qualification of Russia’s actions
Russian military forces continue to regularly strike Ukrainian cities and civilian infrastructure using strike drones, missiles, guided bombs, and multiple launch rocket systems. Such attacks occur in all regions of the country.
The Ukrainian authorities, along with international organizations, consider these actions to be war crimes committed by the Russian Federation and emphasize their deliberate nature. The destruction of vital systems, healthcare facilities, energy, water supply, and communication, as well as depriving the population of essential living conditions, are identified by experts as signs of genocidal actions.
During the full-scale war, there have been numerous instances of public statements by the Russian leadership calling for the destruction of Ukrainians as a nation, as well as facts of persecution, deportation of children, and systematic destruction of Ukraine’s cultural heritage in the occupied territories.
The Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1948, defines genocide as acts intended to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group. Among the signs of genocide are: killing members of the group, causing them serious bodily harm, creating living conditions intended to destroy them, hindering childbirth, and forcibly transferring children to other groups.
The Russian authorities officially deny targeted strikes on civilian infrastructure; however, the facts of widespread destruction and civilian casualties indicate otherwise.
