The organization also said that nearly 11,000 Ukrainians have been injured since the start of the all-out Russian invasion.
The Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights has confirmed 6,884 civilian deaths and 10,947 injuries in Ukraine since February. This was confirmed by data on the UN website on Tuesday, December 27.
In addition, from December 1 to December 26, 165 cases of death and 516 injuries of civilians were recorded in Ukraine.
The real death toll is higher because there have been delays in receiving information from some areas where heavy fighting continues, and many reports have yet to be confirmed, the organization said.
“This applies, for example, to the settlements of Mariupol (Donetsk region), Izyum (Kharkiv region), Lysichansk, Popasnaya and Severodonetsk (Luhansk region), where, according to reports, there are many cases of death or injury of civilians,” the statement said..
The majority of recorded casualties were caused by the use of large explosive weapons, including heavy artillery and multiple rocket attacks, as well as rockets and air strikes, on UNHCHR.
As previously reported Correspondent.net, Ukraine has begun a comprehensive process aimed at excluding Russia from the UN Security Council and from the UN as a whole.
