As summer begins in Ukraine, the humanitarian situation remains dire following a recent wave of attacks by the Russian Armed Forces on major cities, including Kyiv, Dnipro, and Kharkiv. The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs reports that these assaults, occurring for the third time in three weeks, have resulted in civilian casualties, with several individuals, including children, killed or injured. Many families, instead of enjoying the summer break, are forced to seek refuge in underground shelters as air raid sirens and explosions disrupt their lives. The ongoing conflict continues to inflict severe psychological and emotional distress on the civilian population, highlighting the urgent need for adherence to international humanitarian law to protect non-combatants and civilian infrastructure.
