Over the past month, the number of civilian casualties has reached 1165: 285 killed and 880 injured. At the same time, Russian aggression claimed the lives of at least 14 children in a month..

The UN notes that the actual figures are much higher, as it is not possible to obtain information from some places where intense fighting continues, and many reports are still awaiting confirmation.. We are talking, for example, about Mariupol, Izyum, Lisichansk, Popasna and Severodonetsk, where there are reports of numerous casualties among the civilian population.

At the end of June, the UN published a report on the results of the war in Ukraine.

The Ukrainian authorities have already prepared projects for launching the work of a special international tribunal for Russia.
