International Court of Justice orders Russia to immediately end its invasion of Ukraine

Ukraine has gained a complete victory in its case against Russia at the UN's International Court of Justice. The Court ordered Russia to immediately stop its invasion of Ukraine.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reported this on Twitter, Ukrinform reports.

"Ukraine gained a complete victory in its case against Russia at the International Court of Justice. The ICJ ordered [Russia] to immediately stop the invasion. The order is binding under international law. Russia must comply immediately. Ignoring the order will isolate Russia even further," he said.

On the third day of the invasion, Ukraine submitted a lawsuit against Russia to the International Court of Justice demanding that the aggressor be held accountable for distorting the concept of genocide. After all, Russia is actually trying to change reality to justify its attack. So, in fact, the Court has to decide whether genocide was committed in Ukraine. The fact is that Russia, as always, is trying to distort everything, saying that Ukraine is allegedly guilty of genocide in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions, so Russia was forced to use military force.

The war with Russian invaders has been going on in Ukraine since February 24.
