The world is yet to discover the full truth about atrocities of Russian occupiers in Ukraine – Zelensky

Over 70,000 Russian war crimes have already been recorded in Ukraine. However, we do not know about all crimes at the moment.

The relevant statement was made by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the United for Justice conference in Lviv, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“Over 70,000 Russian war crimes have already been recorded. But, unfortunately, we do not know about all crimes at the moment. A large part of our territory still remains occupied, and we cannot currently reliably predict how many Russian crimes we would discover after the occupiers are expelled,” Zelensky said.

Nevertheless, according to the President of Ukraine, it is clear how serious these crimes are and what the scale of the criminal manifestations of Russia’s aggression is.

“We remember everything. We remember Bucha – and what the Russian soldiers did there. We remember the village of Yahidne in Chernihiv region, in fact, the concentration camp into which the occupiers turned the basement of the village school. For weeks, more than three hundred people – from the elderly to children – were kept there. In the confined space, in the dark, in the suffocation. We remember the numerous abuses and rapes of adults and children, which forever changed the world’s view of what Russia is,” Zelensky noted.

Hence, it is possible to predict what else we would face when we return to the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, where Russia brought death and suffering, the Head of State added.

“Mariupol and Volnovakha, Olenivka, and dozens of other places where Russia brought death and suffering have yet to reveal the full truth to the world about the atrocities of the occupiers in Ukraine. […] We now have data on thousands of civilian victims of the Russian attack. Thousands... But it is obvious that the occupier took the lives of a much larger number of our people,” the President of Ukraine stressed.
