French Foreign Ministry on shelling of Kherson region: "They illustrate Russia’s complete disregard for all principles of international humanitarian law"
Today’s shelling of the Kherson region "illustrates Russia’s complete contempt for all principles of international humanitarian law, which it grossly and repeatedly violates."
This is stated in the statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of France, cited by European Truth, Censor.NET reports.
"France strongly condemns the new Russian attacks that were inflicted on the Kherson region in the south of Ukraine today," the statement said.
"These new attacks on the civilian population once again illustrate Russia's complete disregard for all the principles of international humanitarian law, which it grossly and repeatedly violates," the French Foreign Ministry emphasized.
The agency emphasized that these unacceptable actions are war crimes and cannot go unpunished.
In close coordination with its partners, France will continue to provide military support to Ukraine to strengthen its air defense capacity, as well as support to Ukrainian courts and the International Criminal Court to fight impunity for such crimes, the French Foreign Ministry said.
