Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of reports that an art school in Ukraine, sheltering 400 people has been destroyed by Russian forces; and what progress they have made in discussions with the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court for ensuring that such reports and available evidence will be considered by that body in pursuit of prosecutions.

Russia's use of indiscriminate force against innocent civilians is clear. It must be investigated and those responsible held to account.

That is why the UK led efforts to refer the situation in Ukraine to the International Criminal Court (ICC). We welcome the decision of the ICC Prosecutor to open an investigation. We stand ready to provide the necessary technical assistance to the ICC to support successful convictions.
