Had a phone call with @SecDef Lloyd J. Austin III
Grateful for another package of security assistance, especially for the new capabilities to defend our skies from russia's brutal attacks.
🇺🇦 PATRIOTic soldiers will master these systems quickly.They proved their skills many times

Today I had an important call with @JakobEllemann
I congratulated him on his appointment as Vice-PM, #DefMin of 🇩🇰.He informed me of a newly-approved financial aid package of up to €40M for 🇺🇦military needs.
It’s essential that we continue our longtime defence cooperation
🇺🇦🤝🇩🇰

rus occupiers are engaged in massive looting in the Kakhovka district,Kherson region.Looting is the signature move of the rus army,wherever they go.
They dont care that the international rules of war expressly forbid the plundering of public/private property

russians are shelling 🇺🇦 residential buildings on a daily basis. The Convention respecting the Laws and Customs of War on Land prohibits the attack or bombardment of towns, villages, dwellings, or buildings which are undefended. But the occupiers don’t care.

Barbaric shelling of Kherson by russian terrorists is not only another war crime, but also revenge on its residents who resisted the occupation and proved to the whole world that Kherson is Ukraine.

Ukraine will be able to prevent such tragedies if it has more means of counter-battery warfare, more artillery and more long-range ammunition.
Thus, russian murderers will be punished and driven out from Ukraine.

The only church in Kyselivka village (Kherson region) was fully destroyed by russian shelling. The Hague Convention IV protects religious buildings during hostilities, but for russian war criminals there is no God, nor any respect for religion

In Bilopilla (Sumy region) rus fired at civilian hospital,killing a child.While the 4th Geneva Convention,1st Additional Protocol&customary law in all circumstances protects hospitals from the attack,russia continues to target 🇺🇦 hospitals&commits war crimes

russia constantly violates the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons. Occupiers have been using extremely dangerous thermobaric munitions to attack residential areas on the South,East & North of 🇺🇦. They did this though that rus is a Party to the CCCW

russia deported more than 13,000 🇺🇦 children
The 4th Geneva Convention calls for the facilitation of renewing contact & meeting of family members
But the goal of the "russian world" is different—to kill millions of Ukrainians & to make their children russian

Booby traps in dead soldiers and mass graves, soft toys and children’s backpacks, in schools, hospitals and apartments…This is a partial list of russia’s violations of Protocol ІІ to the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons in 🇺🇦

We have shot down, are shooting down and will shoot down russian drones, missiles, planes & helicopters in our skies.
We will use everything: from old MANPADS to the modern Patriot systems.
We protect our own land.
The terrorist state is being demilitarized «according to plan».

russians continue to forcibly recruit Ukrainians from the occupied territories to fight against their own country. I would like to remind you that the 4th Geneva Convention prohibits the occupiers from compelling protected persons to serve in their army.

The damage to the 🇺🇦 ecology caused by russia is estimated at $35.3 billion. Millions of hectares of nature preserves are under threat.Article 55 of the Protocol I prohibits waging war VS the natural environment by way of reprisals, but russia doesn’t care.

In Beryslav (Kherson region) 🇷🇺 retreated and intentionally blew up a power plant. Art. 51(2) of the Additional Protocol I prohibits destruction of critical infrastructure as terror acts. But this does not stop russian invaders.

Naddnipryanske (Kherson region). New Year’s Eve. A 13-year-old boy was twice targeted by 🇷🇺. First, he was critically injured on his way home. Then russians shelled the intensive care unit where he was being treated. Two war crimes. The life of one child.

Six.
That is how many types of serious violations against children during armed conflicts are listed in UN Security Council Resolution 1261 (1999).
russia has committed all of them. We must remember this and punish evil.

Security formula:
The missile power of the “world's second army” is inversely proportional to the strictness of sanctions compliance multiplied by the strength of Ukrainian air defense.

1st. Killing and maiming of children.
Since February 24, 2022 🇷🇺 had killed 453 🇺🇦 children and injured 877. However, real numbers are much higher. russia has been committing war crimes and has no plans to stop.

2nd. Recruitment and use of children.
🇷🇺 tried to use 🇺🇦 children to unknowingly provide information about the location of strategically important objects through a mobile game.
This is not just a dirty trick, it’s a war crime.
