"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine strongly condemns the shelling by the armed forces of the Russian Federation of the premises of foreign diplomatic institutions in Ukraine. As a result of missile and bomb attacks by the Russian army in Mariupol, the building that housed the Consulate General of Greece and the office of the OSCE Special Monitoring Mission was damaged, and the premises of honorary consulates of Slovenia, Azerbaijan and Albania in Kharkiv were destroyed," the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Tuesday.

The department said that Russia's armed attack on the premises of diplomatic missions is a gross violation of international humanitarian law, the Vienna Conventions on Diplomatic and Consular Relations.
