The civilian death toll in Ukraine last month rose sharply, to 174, which was the highest level in nearly a year amid an increase in missile and bomb strikes in populated areas around Kharkiv, the UN human rights office said on Friday.
The May toll represented an increase of 31% from April and the highest since June 2023, according to data from the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine, reported Reuters.
