This is not just shelling, this is a policy aimed at terrorizing and destroying Ukrainians. This is an attack on a residential building. This house is not located next to any military or dual-use facility. This house is located in a densely built-up area. We understand that this policy begins in the Kremlin. Criminal orders are given from the Kremlin

After all, we must not only investigate such war crimes. We must stop these crimes. To do this, we need the support of the world. We, as prosecutors, law enforcement agencies, together with our partners from the International Criminal Court and other countries that are conducting their own investigations, are doing everything possible to ensure that everyone who is guilty of the deaths of Ukrainians, torture and rape is brought to justice
