June 4 - Day of commemoration of children who died as a result of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine
Russian killings of Ukrainian children occur regularly. Even this morning we have news that the body of a 2-year-old child was found under the rubble in the suburbs of Dnipro.
The aggressor is waging war against Ukraine by barbaric methods, destroying the nation and trying to eradicate the identity of Ukrainians. Every day, the enemy illegally takes children to the temporarily occupied territories or to the Russian Federation. It maims and kills our children every day.
According to the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine, since the beginning of hostilities, on April 14, 2014, 152 children were killed and 146 children were injured by the end of 2021. After the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Russia, the number of victims among children is increasing daily. And the actual number of dead and injured children cannot be established due to active hostilities.
We will remember every innocently killed angel and be sure to take revenge! Eternal memory!
