Responding to the attack that took place in Kramatorsk on the evening of Thursday 27 June which resulted in the killing of at least 11 people, including three children, and a continuing search for survivors, Nicola Bay, Organizational Lead for Oxfam’s Ukraine response said:
“Oxfam strongly condemns this attack. Innocent civilians, including children, should not pay the price for this war. Wherever it operates, Oxfam stands against all attacks on civilians or civilian infrastructure, either targeted or through indiscriminate use of force. We strongly urge all warring parties to respect international humanitarian laws and take every possible precaution to avoid loss of civilians lives or injury to civilians.”
