1. Tilt down, UNICEF supply boxes marked for Kyiv shipment
2. Close up, UNICEF supply boxes marked for Kyiv shipment
3. Wide shot, forklift loading UNICEF supply boxes marked for Kyiv shipment
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Catherine Russell, Executive Director, United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF):
“The situation for children caught up in the conflict in Ukraine grows worse by the minute. We are receiving reports of hospitals, schools, water and sanitation facilities and orphanages under fire. Explosive weapons in populated areas and explosive remnants of war are real and present dangers for the children in Ukraine. Children have been killed. Children have been wounded. And children are being profoundly traumatized by the violence all around them. We appeal for a suspension of ongoing military operations in Ukraine. Such a suspension would allow for humanitarian help to reach children cut off after five days of intensive airstrikes and fierce ground fighting nationwide. It would also allow families in the worst affected areas to venture out to get food and water, to seek medical care and to leave in search of safety.”
