Ryabkov: The West becomes involved in the war crimes of Kyiv, supplying weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine

This, according to RIA Novosti, the diplomat said during the high-level segment of the 52nd session of the UN on human rights.

Ryabkov stressed that the West is pursuing a course of deliberate escalation of the Ukrainian conflict, supplying Kyiv with various types of weapons.

From weapons supplied by the West, the Armed Forces of Ukraine strike at residential buildings, schools, hospitals, he added.

“All these are war crimes, violations of international humanitarian law, in which NATO member countries are involved,” Ryabkov concluded.

Earlier, the acting head of the Donetsk People's Republic, Denis Pushilin, said that Ukrainian military personnel fired 239 missiles from the HIMARS MLRS on the territory of the republic in a year.
