The UN Security Council will discuss next week the missile attack recorded in kyiv this Thursday, while the general secretary of the organization, António Guterres, was visiting the city, as announced by the body’s current president.
“During the general secretary’s visit to kyiv there were missile attacks on the city and this is a very worrying matter“, said the British ambassador, Barbara Woodward, who presides over the Security Council during April.
Thus, Woodward has advanced that the highest decision-making body of the United Nations will discuss the issue during a meeting on Ukraine next week, already under the presidency of the United States.
In addition, the diplomat has indicated that her delegation has been in contact with the UN Secretary General, and that both Guterres and his team are fine, although the Ukrainian journalist from ‘Radio Liberty’, Viera Gyrich, died in the bombing.
Two projectiles hit kyiv on Thursday, just as Guterres was in the city to meet with Ukrainian President Volodimir Zelensky, according to local authorities, who attributed the attack to Russian forces. “Tonight, the enemy fired on kyiv. There have been two hits in the Shevchenkivski district. All emergency services are on site,” the mayor, Vitali Klitchkó, posted on his Telegram channel.
Likewise, Zelenski’s adviser, Mijailo Podoliak, also reported on the attack, who stressed that the bombing took place during Guterres’ visit. “The day before he was sitting at a long table in the Kremlin and today there are explosions above his head. A postcard from Moscow? (Need to) remember why Russia still has a seat in the Security Council?” he wrote on his Twitter account.
