The International Court of Justice (ICJ) on Wednesday ordered Russia to stop the military actions it started in Ukraine on February 24.

"The Russian Federation shall immediately suspend the military operations that it commenced on February 24, 2022 in the territory of Ukraine," the judges said.

The judges added Russia must also ensure that other forces under its control or supported by Moscow should not continue the military operation.
