On the night of September 28, 2025, the Russian Federation launched dozens of missiles of various types and more than 600 drones at Kyiv, Zaporizhzhia, Bila Tserkva, and other settlements. The attacks destroyed hospitals, residential buildings, and other civilian facilities, killing or injuring dozens of civilians.
The statement emphasizes that Russia has once again demonstrated its criminal and misanthropic nature by carrying out this terrorist attack during the opening week of the new session of the UN General Assembly.
“Any support for the Russian Federation, including trade with it, means supporting murderers and terrorists, which entails not only moral responsibility but also responsibility before God, who is a Just Judge,” the document says.
The UCCRO called on democratic states to:
- provide Ukraine with effective air defense and missile defense systems;
- increase economic and political pressure on the Russian Federation to stop the aggression;
- promote the establishment of a just and lasting peace.
Religious leaders also expressed their gratitude to international partners, believers of different faiths, and people of good will around the world for their support and prayers for Ukraine.
