The United Nations reported a significant increase in civilian casualties in Ukraine during May, marking the highest number of deaths since April 2022. The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) documented at least 274 deaths and 1763 injuries among civilians last month. This represents a 93% increase compared to the same period last year, when 191 deaths and 865 injuries were recorded. The report highlights a worsening situation for non-combatants caught in the ongoing conflict. The UN continues to monitor and verify casualties, acknowledging that actual figures are likely higher. These findings underscore the continued human cost of the war in Ukraine. The OHCHR regularly publishes updates on the impact of the conflict on civilians.
