Since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in late February 2022, 15.850 civilians have been killed in Ukraine, including 791 children, the office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights said, Interfax-Ukraine reported today.
According to the UN, 44.809 people, including 2.752 children, have been injured.
"The actual number of victims is likely much higher," the UN added.
It is reported that at least 238 civilians were killed and 1.404 wounded in Ukraine in April, the highest monthly number of civilian casualties since July 2025.
The UN added that last Sunday saw one of the largest airstrikes in Ukraine since the start of the Russian invasion.
