Russia continues heavy bombing of the Ukraine's main cities killing civilians and using them as the hostages. A ground and air campaign by Russian and Belarusian allies has surrounded two main Ukraine cities. More than 1.4 million people are trapped in Kharkiv and more than 2.8 in Kiev with rapidly dwindling food and medical facilities under constant shelling and bombing.

International humanitarian law allow safe, unimpeded, impartial and immediate humanitarian access for civilians to leave and for aid to come in. We must act swiftly to demand Russia to respect its obligations, save lives and prevent humanitarian catastrophe.

Condemn Russian and Belarusian allies use of heavy artillery and aviation in the densely populated areas against civilian population.

Call for Russia to urgently establishing several exit corridors in Kiev and Kharkiv that would allow for the distribution of food, as well as provide an opportunity for civilians to flee the city.

Request 48-hour humanitarian pause so much-needed assistance could be provided to the people trapped in urban areas.
