Dozens of countries called Monday for a UN Human Rights Council special session to address alleged Russian rights violations during its war in Ukraine, Kyiv’s ambassador to the UN in Geneva announced.

“Today, we have requested a special session of the UN Human Rights Council to consider the deteriorating human rights situation in Ukraine… we will not rest until we ensure that those who commit these crimes are held to account,” said Yevheniia Filipenko, in a video message posted on Twitter.
