More than a month has passed since Russia invaded Ukraine. Russian forces continue to bombard Ukrainian cities, but progress has stalled due to significant resistance from Ukraine’s military.
The U.N. human rights office says it has documented nearly 1,200 civilians killed in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. More than 10 million people have been displaced from their homes in Ukraine since Russia’s invasion began, including 4 million who have fled the country, the greatest refugee crisis since World War II.
