Ukraine says its troops have killed about 35,450 Russian soldiers since aggression began

According to the statement, Ukraine’s forces destroyed 1,572 Russian tanks, 217 aircraft, 185 helicopters, and 3,720 armored carriers.

The statement said that Ukrainian forces had destroyed 781 Russian artillery systems.

On the other hand, the United Nations Office of Human Rights said that they identified executions of civilians by the Russian troops in Kyiv, Chernihiv, Kharkiv, and Sumy oblasts.

“OHCHR has documented and verified allegations of unlawful killings, including summary executions of civilians in more than 30 settlements in Kyiv, Chernihiv, Kharkiv and Sumy regions, committed while these territories were under the control of Russian armed forces in late February and March. In Bucha alone (Kyiv region), OHCHR documented the unlawful killings, including summary executions, of at least 50 civilians,” the agency said in a situation report released on Wednesday.

“Most victims were men, but there were also women and children. As the recovery, exhumation and identification of mortal remains is not yet over, the scale is yet to be fully assessed,” the agency added. (ILKHA)
