Ukraine
Events of 2024
Russia's war against Ukraine continued to cause immense civilian suffering. Since its full-scale invasion in February 2022, Russian forces have committed widespread war crimes and other abuses and maintained a climate of fear in Russia-occupied areas of Ukraine. In 2024, Russia’s large-scale coordinated attacks on Ukraine’s energy grid significantly reduced Ukraine’s power-generating capacity, causing country-wide blackouts. The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued four arrest warrants against senior Russian officials for their role in these attacks.
From February 2022 through November 2024, 12,162 Ukrainian civilians were killed and 26,919 injured, according to the United Nations Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights. At least 6.7 million Ukrainians fled and remain abroad. Millions more remain internally displaced. Throughout 2024, tens of thousands fled frontline cities in Kharkivska and Donetska regions to other parts of the country due to Russia’s continued military advancement.
In June, the European Union opened accession negotiations with Ukraine and presented Ukraine with a negotiating framework that includes rule of law, fundamental rights, and democratic institutions as priority issues in the next step of the accession process.
In August, Ukraine took steps toward becoming a full member of the International Criminal Court, a milestone in advancing global justice.
In June, the?European?Court?of?Human?Rights (ECHR)?ruled in favour?of?Ukraine’s interstate complaint against Russia, finding Russia responsible for a range of?human?rights?abuses in?Crimea. The?court found that Russian authorities carried out a pattern?of?“retaliatory prosecution” against those opposed to Russia’s occupation?of?Crimea, which began in 2014.
In April, the UN Human Rights Council extended the mandate of the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine, established in 2022, for another year.
In August, Ukraine launched an incursion into Russia’s Kursk region. At time of writing, Ukrainian forces reportedly controlled approximately 800 sq km there, including the town of Sudzha, where they established a military administration.
Explosive Weapons in Populated Areas
Russian forces carried out numerous attacks on densely populated areas in 2024, causing devastation and suffering across Ukraine. Most civilian casualties were caused by explosive weapons with wide area effects, which also damaged residential buildings, hospitals, schools, cultural heritage sites, and other civilian infrastructure.
At least 219 civilians were killed and 1,018 injured in July, making it the deadliest month for civilians in the past two years. Russian forces’ strikes on multiple cities on July 8 killed at least 43 civilians, including five children, and injured at least 190. The attacks also caused significant damage to vital civilian infrastructure, including the Okhmatdyt children’s hospital in Kyiv, the country’s largest children’s hospital. Ukrainian authorities reported that the strike on Okhmatdyt and another hospital in Kyiv killed nine patients and healthcare workers and injured 16 patients, including children. Human Rights Watch and others called for the strike on Okhmatdyt to be investigated as a war crime.
Russia’s March 4 strikes on Odesa killed 12 people, including 5 children, and injured 20, according to regional authorities.
As the Russian ground offensive advanced in Kharkivska region, attacks on Kharkiv city and its environs intensified. May attacks using air-dropped bombs and missiles killed, injured, and displaced large numbers of civilians and damaged civilian infrastructure. On May 25, an attack on a busy shopping center killed 19 people and wounded 54, according to Ukrainian authorities. An attack on August 30, according to official reports, killed six civilians and inj
