Statement by the Humanitarian Coordinator for Ukraine, Denise Brown, on the Latest Attacks on the Port of Odesa [EN/UK/RU]

I am horrified by the images of last night’s attacks by Russian forces on the port of Odesa. It is the second day in a row that this civilian port, a crucial lifeline for Ukraine and for the poorest people in the world who depend on Ukrainian grain, has been severely damaged in massive strikes.

This is inhumane and against international humanitarian law.

Attacks on civilian infrastructure must stop now.
