Since the beginning of Russian aggression in Ukraine, 8,231 Ukrainian civilians have been killed. The number of injured is 13,734, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) has reported. The deaths of 3,664 men, 2,173 women and 494 children have been confirmed. The sex of 31 children and 1,900 adults, who died mostly in bombings, has not yet been confirmed. According to the UN, 17,619 of the victims (6,372 dead and 11,247 wounded) were on the territory controlled by Ukraine.
In the period from March 1 to 12th, the UN has identified 84 new cases of dead Ukrainian civilians and 209 wounded. The organization points out that the real number of civilian casualties is significantly higher because data from the places of heavy fighting is delayed.
Many reports are still pending corroboration and this concerns, for example, Mariupol (Donetsk region), Lysychansk, Popasna, and Sievierodonetsk (Luhansk region), where there are allegations of numerous civilian casualties, OHCHR reported.
