INTERVIEW: Ukrainian children express 'innocent hope for peace'
By UN News
Dec 20, 2023 3:06 pm

The 'innocent hope for peace' demonstrated by Ukrainian children and the determination of all citizens there to look to the future, is helping the country survive into a second winter of Russia's full-blown invasion, according to the senior UNICEF representative based in Kyiv.

The deaths of over 10,000 civilians have been verified by the UN human rights office, OHCHR, since the invasion began in February 2022, although the actual number of fatalities could be much higher.
