Ukrainians should live without fear of attacks disrupting their lives: Humanitarian Coordinator for Ukraine Denise Brown denounces attacks that damage critical civilian infrastructure across

UNOCHA - United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs

I am deeply disturbed again by a harrowing wave of attacks on Ukrainian cities and towns this morning.

The attacks have led to a distressing number of civilian casualties and have massively disrupted essential services, including electricity, water, and gas supplies, especially in Mykolaiv City and Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, when they are much needed this cold winter. Millions of people rely on these services for heating, cooking, and transportation. They are critically important to ensure the health and education facilities are functional.

Ukrainians should live without fear of attacks disrupting their lives.

Humanitarians have mobilized emergency response in Kyiv and Mykolayiv, delivering repair materials and psychosocial assistance to those affected.

Repeated attacks damaging civilian infrastructure and causing injuries and deaths to civilians indicate a concerning pattern of harm and international humanitarian law violations. Civilians must be spared from violence.
