Russian Federation Representative at UN: Social networks has a host of educational manuals about how to create fakes to depict our military operations in fabrications. These social networks have 1.2 million such fakes circulating.
Ukraine Representative at UN: Russia will have to answer for it's behavior in the World Court at the Hague. The court has jurisdiction to hear Ukraine's case, and to order emergency measures on the basis of the convention on the prevention and punishment on the crime of genocide.
Ukraine Representative to UN [speaking to press]: We sincerely believe that the Russian atrocities in Ukraine amount to violation of many, many, international treaties.
The Ukraine Representative to the UN says 4,300 Russian soldiers have been killed, and over 200 taken as prisoners of war. Ukraine has created a second hotline and website for Russian families to inquire about their condition; the representative says the initial hotline was shut down by Russia. It's difficult to determine what is actually happening on the ground, but it's hard to believe Russia has lost that many soldiers already.
Sirens are sounding in Kiev, moments after a distant boom was heard.
The siren and boom happened a few minutes ago on the stream I am watching [Abz Raz]. Could be that it's not live…no way to easily tell. Supposed to be near the Kiev monastery.
Was trying to confirm a report that Zelensky's office is saying Russian troops have taken Berdyansk, and the website for President Zelensky appears to now be down.
