UN reports rise in Ukraine civilian deaths

The United Nations Human Rights Office reported a significant increase in civilian casualties in Ukraine during the first half of 2026, with the total number of killed and injured reaching 13,396—a 37% rise compared to the same period last year. The surge in drone attacks, including both short- and long-range strikes, has resulted in 418 civilian deaths and 2,437 injuries during the first six months, compared to 218 killed and 1,511 injured in the same period in 2025. The current escalation is marked by a rise in attacks, the destruction of civilian support networks, and increased fighting along the front lines, despite the involved parties denying targeting civilians. These developments come amid the fifth anniversary of the Russian-Ukrainian war, with hostilities intensifying from both sides.
