Others were thrown into wells, so they died there suffering. They were killed in their apartments, houses, blown up by grenades. Civilians were crushed by tanks while sitting in their cars in the middle of the road, just for their pleasure,\u201d Zelensky continued. \u201cThey cut off limbs, slashed their throats. Women were raped and killed in front of their children. Their tongues were pulled out only because the aggressor did not hear what they wanted to hear from them. This is not different from other terrorists such as ISIS. And here it is done by a member of the United Nations Security Council.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>There was \u201cnot a single crime\u201d Russian forces \u201cwould not commit,\u201d Zelensky <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-europe-61002914\"><span>added<\/span><\/a><span>. <\/span><span>\u201cThe world has yet to see [what] they have done in other occupied cities and regions of our country.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Zelensky\u2019s address came one day after Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/russias-participation-a-farce-u-s-calls-for-russia-to-be-kicked-out-of-u-n-human-rights-council\"><span>announced<\/span><\/a><span> that the United States will seek Russia\u2019s removal from the United Nations Human Rights Council, following its brutal invasion of Ukraine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI am returning to New York to do two things.
