Ottawa has summoned Russia’s ambassador to Canada to answer for recent Russian missile strikes on the Ukrainian city of Dnipro, according to Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly, who called the attacks “sheer brutality.”

“We will ensure that those responsible for the horrific scenes and crimes in these cities and those across Ukraine answer to their crimes,” said Joly during a press conference in Toronto on Jan. 18.
