READ MORE: The Pentagon on Friday blasted the conduct of Russian troops in Ukraine: "It's very clear that Russian forces have committed war crimes,” Pentagon press secretary John Kirby told reporters at a daily briefing. “There’s no question about that.”

Citing the bombing of hospitals and “pregnant women being killed,” he called it “brutality of the coldest and most depraved sort.”

"We were certainly working under an assumption that [Russian President Vladimir] Putin was capable of pursuing what he believed Russia's national interest to be with cold steel and with brutal determination," Kirby said. "I don't think we fully appreciated the degree to which he would visit that kind of violence and cruelty, and as I said depravity, on innocent people, on noncombatants, on civilians, with such utter disregard for the lives he was taking."

Kirby also slammed the Russian president’s stated rationale for the invasion.

“Let's just call it what it is, his B.S., that this is about Nazism and about protecting Russians in Ukraine ... when none of them, none of them were threatened by Ukraine,” he said.

Meanwhile, the U.S. State Department expressed sorrow over the death of an American citizen and former U.S. Marine who was killed while fighting alongside Ukrainian forces as Russia launched new attacks in eastern Ukraine.
