Russia called out Western allies of Ukraine at an informal meeting of the United Nations Security Council, hosted by Russia, for not condemning Kyiv's incursion into the Kursk region, accusing Ukrainian forces of killing civilians and questioning the goals of the cross-border assault.
"We haven't heard a word of condemnation of these actions from the Western sponsors of the Kyiv regime, who continue to cover up the abhorrent crimes of their puppet," Russia's Deputy U.N. Ambassador Dmitry Polyanskiy told the council gathering.
"There is no question as to which country has committed numerous well-documented atrocities, including war crimes and crimes against humanity, on Ukraine's sovereign territory," said U.S. diplomat Caleb Pine. "That country is Russia."
