The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry announced Saturday the creation of an online archive to document war crimes committed by Russia in Ukraine with evidence, he added, that will help the perpetrators not escape justice.
“We thoroughly document every atrocity, every crime. We have created a special online archive of these crimes so that the world knows the truth and to hold Russians accountable for every drop of Ukrainian blood they shed,” Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said in a statement.
This file “guarantees that the Russians cannot hide the truth about their terrible crimes in Ukraine,” he said.
“We will punish Russian war criminals for the atrocities they are committing in Ukraine, not only the executors, but also the commanders who gave the orders and the entire political-military leadership of the Russian Federation,” he said.
He added that thousands of Ukrainians have been killed, tortured and killed by Russian soldiers, that civilians have been executed with their hands tied behind their backs in the streets of Bucha, and that women and children have been raped and killed.
“War crimes of Russia. Beyond evil, even during the war”, highlights the web during the immersive experience of the page, under the sound of sirens that rumble during the bombings. “Russia ignores the rules. These rules are now being cynically and unscrupulously violated by thousands of Russian soldiers sent to Ukraine by their dictator, Putin. To bomb. To destroy. To commit mass murder,” they add.
They also exhibit photos of destruction of buildings in civilian areas.
“We will never forget or forgive. Neither does the world,” they said.
The Russian army has bombed maternity hospitals, schools, nurseries and humanitarian corridors and that people have been forcibly deported to Russia, he added.
The war crimes committed by the Russian army in Ukraine since the beginning of the invasion on February 24 included in this archive are divided into seven categories: murder of innocents, attacks on civilians or civilian infrastructure, destruction of population centers, hostages and torture, illegal deportation, attacks on religion and culture and rape.
The statement adds that the portal “immerses visitors in the horrible atmosphere of this war” to “experience only a fraction of how Ukrainians have been forced to live for more than six weeks”, to “listen to the sounds of anti-aircraft sirens, warplanes and missile strikes” and to “read the terrible testimonies of the survivors”.
The website is available in English and Chinese, the two most spoken languages in the world.
The archive, which is already available via the link https://war.ukraine.ua/russia-war-crimes, will be constantly updated by the ministry in cooperation with Ukrainian law enforcement agencies, international organizations and monitoring missions.
Ukrainian and Western authorities have repeatedly accused Moscow of committing atrocities during the war that began with the Russian invasion on February 24. Due to the conflict, more than 4 million Ukrainians have fled their country and millions more are displaced within its borders. Some of the most alarming evidence of the massacres was found in locations close to the Ukrainian capital, from which President Vladimir Putin's forces withdrew in recent days.
Ukrainian authorities have warned that they expect to find evidence of further mass killings once they reach the port city of Mariupol, which is also in the Donbas and has been under siege by Russian forces for a month.
The UN General Assembly approved Thursday to suspend Russia from the organization's Human Rights Council due to allegations of horrendous violations of those rights by Russian soldiers in Ukraine.
