Full statement:

"We are asking the International Red Cross to help us repatriate the bodies of Russian soldiers back to the Russian Federation. We are talking of thousands of occupants’ bodies. It is a humanitarian need, and we are asking to arrange for the Russian occupiers’ bodies to be removed from the territory of Ukraine and transported to the Russian Federation.

People in the Russian Federation must know how many bodies there are and how many occupants are littering the Ukrainian land today."

The Red Cross please do everything in your power to solve this humanitarian problem.

We appeal once again to the Russians. Make the bodies of your sons and men smaller. Otherwise, there will be thousands of them."
