At Nordic Right, we promote human rights in the Nordic Region and beyond. Our mission is to condemn any act of violence, aggression, and disregard for human life. It is with heavy hearts that we address the recent tragic incident in north-eastern Ukraine.
Reports indicate that a Russian “guided bomb” struck a blood transfusion centre in Kupiansk, Kharkiv region, resulting in the death of two innocent individuals and injuring four others. This blatant attack on civilians is a clear violation of human rights and an act of war crime.
We stand in solidarity with Ukrainian officials and President Volodymyr Zelensky, who rightly condemn this senseless act of violence. This incident only underscores the severity of Russian aggression and its impact on innocent lives.
As an organization dedicated to promoting human rights, we firmly believe that such acts of violence must not go unnoticed or unaccounted for. We call on the international community to join us in condemning this attack and demanding justice for the victims and their families.
It is crucial for all parties involved to prioritize the protection of civilians during times of conflict. Targeting non-residential buildings, like the blood transfusion centre, only exacerbates the already dire situation in the region.
We urge Russia to address these allegations and take responsibility for its actions. Denying such grave allegations of war crimes only perpetuates the cycle of violence and hinders any efforts towards peace and reconciliation.
We also call on all parties to engage in meaningful dialogue and pursue diplomatic solutions to put an end to the ongoing conflict. The people of Ukraine deserve peace, security, and the right to live free from fear.
As President Zelensky rightfully stated, defeating terrorists is a matter of honour for everyone who values life. We stand united with Ukraine in its fight for peace, justice, and human rights.
The Nordic Right will continue to monitor the situation closely and advocate for the protection of human rights in the region. We will not remain silent in the face of such atrocities, and we call on the international community to join us in condemning this attack and standing up for the rights of all civilians affected by the conflict.
