Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andrii Sybiha: "At least 21 civilians were killed and more than two dozen injured following a barbaric direct Russian strike with an air bomb on ordinary people lined up to receive pensions in the village of Yarova in the Donetsk region. This heinous crime demands worldwide condemnation and action. We urge the world to speak out and act immediately. We call on European partners, the United States, G20 members, and all who value human life and the UN Charter to take action. We are currently informing all of our partners and international organizations about the details of this horrific crime. And we expect strong responses. Russian criminals must face justice for this and other atrocities. Russian propaganda claims to be "saving" people in the Donetsk region, but in reality, it is dropping massive air bombs on people who came to receive pensions. Russia brings only death, horror, and destruction. Collective and decisive action, including devastating sanctions pressure and additional support for Ukraine's defense and resilience, can and must stop Russian terror."
