Zelensky: The number of children killed has now reached at least 707 Ukrainian children
Kyiv, June 4 (Hibya) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the most painful face of the war is the targeting of vulnerable children, announcing that at least 707 Ukrainian children have lost their lives so far, while thousands more have been injured or abducted.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made a statement on the occasion of the Day of Remembrance for Children Killed by Russia.
Expressing the significance of the day and the deep pain it carries, Zelensky said: "Today is the day of remembrance for children killed by Russia. Officially, it has a different name. But in the language of truth, that is exactly what it is. This day tells of the most painful chapters of the war, of Russia's greatest injustice and evil in killing the most vulnerable and innocent — children."
Presenting the human and statistical toll of the war on children, Zelensky stated: "At present, this figure stands at at least 707 Ukrainian children. There are also thousands of children injured by Russia, thousands abducted, and thousands whose fate remains unknown. These are important and horrifying numbers, but behind them lies something greater than statistics about Russian crimes. They were children's dreams, plans, and hopes that were simply erased."
Emphasizing the suffering of families who lost their children, Zelensky concluded his statement by saying: "This is the pain of every mother and every father who does not know how to live with this grief. To live with this pain."
