"I am extremely disturbed by the news of yet another Russian attack that recently struck the heart of Chernihiv, in northern Ukraine, leaving dozens of civilians dead and injured, including children," Brown said .

"It is despicable to attack the main square of a big city, in the morning, while people are out walking, some going to church to celebrate a religious day for many Ukrainians," she added . Saturday marks a major holiday in the Orthodox calendar, the Feast of the Transfiguration.

"I condemn this repeated pattern of Russian attacks on populated areas of Ukraine, causing death, mass destruction and increasing humanitarian needs," she continued. "
