Zelenskiy accuses Russia of 'genocide' over 'kidnapped' children at UN general assembly

Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy accused Russia of 'genocide' on Tuesday during an address to the UN general assembly in which he appealed for support for his country amid an ongoing Russian invasion. Zelenskiy said Ukraine has evidence that Russia had kidnapped 'hundreds of thousands of children', adding that Kyiv was working to return the children to the country. 'Those children in Russia are taught to hate Ukraine and all ties with their families are broken. And this is clearly a genocide,' Zelenskiy said.
