Commissioner: since the beginning of the invasion of the Russian Federation in Ukraine, 61 children have died, 100 have been injured

As of 1 p.m. on March 9, 2022, since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, 61 children have died and 100 children have been injured.

The fate of 55 children from an orphanage in Vorzel, Kyiv Region, remains unknown today.

A 6-year-old girl died of dehydration in Mariupol for the first time in decades, probably for the first time since the Nazi invasion.  Rescuers pulled her out from under the rubble of the house.

Yesterday in the town of Malyn, Zhytomyr region, as a result of the air strike, 7 private one-storey residential buildings were destroyed, 5 people died, including 2 children born in 2021.

Such actions of the armed forces of the Russian Federation pose a direct threat to the life and health of the civilian population, contradict the norms of international humanitarian law and violate the fundamental rights of children - the right to life and health.

I insist, NATO countries - close the sky !!
