The bloody Russian occupation of neighboring Ukraine has lasted for more than 550 days.
Since February 24, 2022, when Russian troops invaded Ukraine, more than 9,000 civilians, including 500 children, have been killed. This was reported by the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine (HRMMU).
HRMMU recalled the attacks on Kramatorsk on June 27, with 13 civilian victims, including four children, and on Lviv on July 6, in which ten people died.
Russian artillery and rocket attacks have the most tragic consequences. They also target civilian infrastructure and supply routes, although Russia says it is attacking military targets in Ukraine.
