UN Urges End To Use Of Cluster Bombs After Ukrainian Strike On Journalists

The UN Human Rights Office on Monday called for an end to cluster bomb strikes in Ukraine after Russia accused the Ukrainian regime of deliberately targeting a group of journalists in the contested Zaporizhzhia Region.
"Regrettably, we are not in a position to comment on the incident itself. However, let me state that cluster munitions scatter small, often bright or colourful bomblets over wide areas, many of which fail to explode immediately but can then kill and maim for years afterwards. The use of such munitions should stop immediately," UN Human Rights Office spokesperson Marta Hurtado told RIA Novosti.
