Instead of humanitarian corridors, Russian army can only ensure bloody ones - Zelensky
This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in a video address to the nation on March 6, Ukrinform reports.
"There was a lot of talk about humanitarian corridors. Every day they talked about the opportunity for people to get out of the cities where Russia moved in, the Russian military. I am grateful to every Ukrainian and everyone who stays around to defend our cities, our freedom. But I also know that there are people who really need to flee, who can't stay, and we heard the promise that there will be humanitarian corridors. There are none! Instead of humanitarian corridors, they can only ensure bloody ones," Zelensky stressed.
He reminded that today in Irpin, Russian troops killed a family - a father, a mother, and their two children.
"Right on the street, like in a shooting range, as they were just trying to get out of the city to escape. The whole family! How many such families died in Ukraine?! We shall not forgive! We shall not forget! We will punish anyone who committed atrocities in this war, We will find every bastard who shot at our cities, at our people, who bombed our land, who launched rockets, who gave orders and pressed ‘launch’ - you will have no safe place on this earth except the grave," the head of the Ukrainian state emphasized.
As reported, on March 6, the Russian military opened fire on civilians who were trying to evacuate from Irpin.
Despite the shelling and capture of Irpin by the enemy, the police and military took 200 people out of the combat zone, including 50 children. The evacuation was carried out near the village of Romanivka under enemy mortar fire.
The war with Russian invaders has been going on in Ukraine since February 24.
