UN Secretary-General urges Russian soldiers to fall back to their barracks.
A rare emergency special session of the General Assembly was held on Monday as fighting in Ukraine raged on for a fifth straight day. The session was called to address the crisis in Ukraine.
In a speech to the UN, Secretary-General António Guterres said that the fighting in Ukraine must stop.
There are reports that Russian planes are mostly hitting Ukrainian military facilities, but “we have credible reports of residential buildings, critical civilian infrastructure, and other non-military targets sustaining heavy damage.”
A statement by the UN Secretary-General said that “enough is enough.” He said that soldiers should go home. To be a leader, you must move to peace Civilians must be safe. It’s essential to follow international humanitarian and human rights laws.

Guterres also said that President Putin’s move to put Russia’s nuclear deterrent on high alert on Sunday was “chilling.”
“Yesterday, Russian nuclear forces were put on high alert, and they were ready to go. This is a terrifying thing. The idea of a nuclear war is entirely out of the question. Because nuclear weapons are so powerful, there is no reason to use them, “He said that.
Ambassador Sergiy Kyslytsya said that a full-scale war was taking place in the middle of Europe for the first time since the United Nations was set up.
As long as Ukraine doesn’t live, international peace won’t last. “Now is the time to help Ukraine,” he said.
If Ukraine doesn’t last, the United Nations won’t survive either, so don’t believe anything. As long as Ukraine does not stay together and democracy does not stay strong, we should not be surprised if it doesn’t work out next.
The Russian ambassador said that the actions of his country are being “distorted and thwarted” by the media and social networks, which spread “these lies,” which he called “false stories.”
That’s what he said: The special Russian military operation is meant to protect the people in the two regions of eastern Ukraine that have been abused and killed by the Kyiv regime for eight years now.
