Ukraine has filed a lawsuit against Russia at the International Court of Justice following Moscow’s invasion of the country.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Sunday the country submitted its application with the UN’s highest court at The Hague.
“Russia must be held accountable for manipulating the notion of genocide to justify aggression,” Zelensky said.
He requested the court immediately orders Russia to halt its invasion, and that the country expects trials to begin soon.
