'We will punish everyone who committed atrocities in this war. On our land. We will find every bastard. Which shot at our cities, our people. Which bombed our land. Which launched rockets. Which gave the order and pressed 'start.''
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky pledged Sunday to hunt down and kill"every b******" involved in the murder of a mother and her two children while the family tried to flee a suburb of Kyiv.
The family's murder at the hands of mortars gained global attention after an image of their dead bodies was shared Sunday following the Russian attack on Irpin, according to a report.A man's body can also be seen in the photo, and he was later identified as a family friend, the report noted."A family was killed in [Irpin] today. A man, a woman and two children. Right on the road … When they were just trying to get out of town. To escape," Zelensky said."The whole family.
"We will punish everyone who committed atrocities in this war. On our land. We will find every bastard. Which shot at our cities, our people. Which bombed our land. Which launched rockets. Which gave the order and pressed 'start.'"“There will be no quiet place on this Earth for you ... Except for the grave.”
The identities of the family members have not been released, but one child was reportedly an 8-year-old girl, while the other was said to be a teenage boy. Photos of the scene where the young family died show other Ukrainians running away over damaged bridges and through empty streets, the report noted."This is murder. Deliberate murder," Zelensky said."And I have not heard a reaction from any world leader today."
