United Nations Security Council Meets On Situation In Ukraine

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - APRIL 19: Sergiy Kyslytsya, permanent representative of Ukraine to the United Nations (UN), speaks during the UN Security Council meeting at the UN on April 19, 2022 in New York City. The council met today as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced that Russia has renewed its assault on the Donbas region, with attacks escalating in Luhansk and Donetsk. Earlier today, UN Secretary-General António Guterres called for a four-day Holy Week humanitarian pause beginning when Ukrainians and Russians celebrate Holy Thursday on April 21 and running through Easter Sunday, April 24 to allow for the opening of a series of humanitarian corridors. The safe passage would allow civilians wanting to leave Ukraine in coordination with the International Committee of the Red Cross, with the UN ready to aid convoys during this period.
