Fifteen people lost their lives during the period, according to the Russian Foreign Ministry’s war crimes investigator

Ukrainian forces have killed 15 civilians and injured 142 over the past week, including eight minors, according to Rodion Miroshnik, the Russian Foreign Ministry’s ambassador-at-large tasked with documenting Kiev’s alleged war crimes.

Writing on his Telegram channel on Tuesday, Miroshnik noted that the past seven days had been the deadliest for civilians since the beginning of the year. He stressed that Ukraine’s forces had launched at least 1,974 munitions at civilian targets in Russian territory over the past week.

The strikes have affected multiple regions, including the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics (DPR and LPR), the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions, as well as Belgorod, Bryansk, and Krasnodar.

Among the deadliest incidents, Miroshnik highlighted a drone attack on a city market in Alyoshki, Kherson Region, where eight civilians were killed and 19 others wounded. In Gorlovka, DPR, a HIMARS strike reportedly killed one woman and injured 16 others, including a four-month-old baby. In Staromikhaylovka, DPR, one person was killed and nine others wounded by the detonation of a cluster submunition.

Other reported incidents include a drone strike on a civilian car in Belgorod Region that killed two people and wounded three, and drone attacks on emergency services in Gorlovka, where eight rescue workers were injured. Additionally, four firefighters were wounded in Kakhovka, Kherson Region.

Miroshnik reported that elderly civilians were also among the casualties, including a 99-year-old woman killed in the LPR and an 89-year-old man killed in Bryansk. A 12-year-old boy was seriously injured by a detonating munition in the Kherson village of Maslovka, and a 17-year-old boy was hurt in a drone attack on a school bus in the Zaporozhye Region.

Throughout the Ukraine conflict, Moscow has repeatedly accused Kiev’s forces of deliberately targeting civilians with NATO-supplied artillery systems, drones, and cluster munitions.

Last week, Miroshnik reported that despite renewed diplomacy efforts between Moscow and Washington, Kiev has only continued to intensify attacks on civilians, apparently attempting to derail peace talks through military provocations and terrorizing the Russian population.

According to Miroshnik, one captured Ukrainian soldier in Russia’s Kursk Region even confessed that he was given direct orders to “shoot all civilians encountered.” The diplomat suggested that Kiev has been “relaying to its units guarantees of impunity for their crimes secretly offered by Western sponsors.”
