Residents of #Kyiv had another sleepless night as attacks become more frequent. Families, children and older people were forced to take cover in shelters, fearing for their lives. This cannot be normalized. Civilians and homes are #NotATarget in Kyiv and across #Ukraine.

In Lampedusa. So that we do not forget those whose journeys of hope have ended in shipwrecks. I pay tribute to Guardia Costiera, Guardia di Finanza and the NGOs bravely saving people in danger. We also need a strengthened European rescue effort to prevent more unnecessary deaths at sea.

At the Ukraine Reconstruction Conference I was encouraged by the commitment to make the return of refugees and displaced people an integral part of reconstruction plans. Meanwhile, with civilians suffering from devastating Russian attacks, humanitarian aid continues to be needed.
