The Russian army has been in the Kharkiv region for more than five months, and during this time, the invaders did not even try to do anything for the people. They only destroyed, only deprived, only took away, Zelenskyi said in his traditional daily address on September 15th.
“ They left behind devastated villages, and in some of them there is not a single undamaged house. The invaders left schools turned into garbage dumps, and churches – broken, literally turned into toilets”, the President described consequences of Russian rule in the Kharkiv Region.
According to him, а Journalists - both Ukrainian and foreign journalists - gained access to the liberated areas.
“ The world must see this destruction, must feel the pain that Russia has brought to Ukrainians. Our law enforcement officers already receive reports of murders, tortures and abductions by the invaders”, Zelenskyi noted.
According to him, what the world saw in Bucha, what we saw in the de-occupied territory of the Chernihiv region, Sumy region, and what we are seeing now in the Kharkiv region are evidence of genocide against Ukrainians.
“[These are] evidences that Russia cannot bring anything else except for genocide”, the Ukrainian leader stressed.
