The United Nations condemned the civilian cost inflicted by Russia’s war in Ukraine as the fighting passed the 500-day mark with no end to the conflict in sight.
On June 27, 13 civilians, including four children, were killed in a missile strike on Kramatorsk in eastern Ukraine.
At least 37 people were wounded during an early Thursday strike that Mayor Andriy Sadovyi called the biggest attack on civilian infrastructure in his city since the start of Russia’s invasion of the country. UNESCO said that attack was also the first to take place in an area protected by the World Heritage Convention and had damaged a historic building.
