Summary
The United Nations has verified that more than 15,000 civilians in Ukraine were killed or injured as a result of Russian aggression during the first eight months of 2026. The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, reported that this amounts to more than 400 people per week on average, 55% more than during the same period in 2025. Russian forces have systematically attacked residential buildings, schools, hospitals, railways, and shops. The war has also led to shortages of vegetables and dairy products in some regions of Ukraine due to strikes on the food industry. Around 2,000 people remain trapped in the occupied town of Oleshky in Kherson Oblast, living without food, water, electricity, or gas. The high commissioner also expressed concern about the involvement of mercenaries from third countries in the war.
