On March 16, 2022, Russia bombed the Mariupol Drama Theater, where hundreds of civilians had taken shelter. Two 500 kg bombs were dropped by a Russian fighter jet, destroying the building and killing several hundred people.
Before the attack, residents had written the word "children" (Дети) in large Cyrillic letters on the pavement on both sides of the theater, clearly marking it as a place of refuge. The inscription was visible from the sky, but that did not stop the attack.
Since then, Mariupol has remained under Russian occupation. This martyr city, over 80% destroyed, has become a symbol of Russia’s war of aggression. While Russia is rebuilding the theater identically to erase evidence of its crimes, it continues to reject peace and target civilians across Ukraine.
Ukraine, on th...

It was thanks to satellite images that the first mass grave of civilians was identified near St. Andrew’s Church, just a few kilometers from Kyiv.
It would take another two weeks, after the withdrawal of Russian troops, for the full scale of the massacre to come to light.
Eyewitness accounts revealed the unspeakable: civilians shot dead in the streets, in their cars, in their homes… bodies found with their hands and legs tied, executed.
In total, 509 civilians were killed during the occupation of Bucha.
A war crime. A crime against humanity that must be prosecuted.
Three years later, war crimes in Ukraine continue: child abductions, torture, rape, bombings of civilians…
Ukraine asks for only one thing: a just and lasting

Today, March 10, marks Ukrainian National Anthem Day, celebrating Shche ne vmerla Ukrainy (Ukraine Has Not Yet Perished).
This anthem, a symbol of resilience and national identity, was first performed in 1865 in memory of the poet Taras Shevchenko, a major figure in Ukrainian culture and history.
The lyrics, a patriotic poem written by Pavlo Chubynsky, were later set to music by Mykhailo Verbytsky. Officially adopted in 1917 during Ukraine’s independence, the anthem was subsequently banned under Soviet rule before being reinstated as the national anthem following the country’s regained independence in 1991.
Its lyrics celebrate the freedom and determination of the Ukrainian people:
"Ukraine’s glory and freedom have not yet perished,Luck will still smile on us, young brothers.Our ene...

Born 211 years ago, Taras Shevchenko (March 9, 1814 – March 10, 1861) remains an iconic figure of Ukraine and a symbol of resistance against Russian oppression.
A poet, painter, and humanist, he gave the Ukrainian language its first literary masterpiece: Kobzar, a collection of poems that became a cornerstone of national identity.
Born into a family of serf peasants, Shevchenko dedicated his life to fighting injustice and serfdom. His commitment to social equality led to his arrest and exile in the Russian military, with Tsar Nicholas I forbidding him from writing and painting. Yet, he never stopped creating—writing stories and painting relentlessly. Freed in 1857, he remained under police surveillance until his death.
His legacy has transcended time, carried forward by a nation that...

A Step Forward for Justice!
A special tribunal to prosecute Russia's aggression against Ukraine is in the process of being established.
On February 3-4, 2025, a meeting was held in Brussels with legal experts from forty countries, the European Union, and the Council of Europe. The goal is to create a legal framework to prosecute those responsible for Russia’s invasion— a crime that does not fall under the jurisdiction of existing international courts.
Since the start of the full-scale war in February 2022, Ukraine has been calling for the establishment of this tribunal to ensure justice is served. The Council of Europe and the European Union support this initiative, affirming that impunity must not prevail. A register of damages caused by Russia has already been set up, and a compens...
