Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the (1) killing, and (2) forced expulsion, of civilians in Ukraine, during Russia’s invasion of that country.

Russia's assault on Ukraine is an unprovoked, premeditated and barbaric attack against a sovereign democratic state. Ukraine has already suffered horrific attacks and innocent people have lost their lives. Russia's invasion will have a massive human cost, and the potential for large-scale loss of life, displacement, and destruction to vital civilian infrastructure including schools and hospitals - in freezing conditions.
