Regarding the Gazette story about a recent forum on the Russia-Ukraine war [“Tensions high over Ukraine War,” Gazette, Oct. 21], readers should know that the U.N.’s Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine published a report on Oct. 19 providing “new evidence that Russian authorities have committed violations of international human rights and international humanitarian law, and corresponding crimes, in areas that came under their control in Ukraine, documenting additional indiscriminate attacks by Russian armed forces, which have led to deaths and injuries of civilians and the destruction and damage of civilian objects.”
Our continuing support for Ukraine’s struggle against an existential threat is indeed worth it.
