United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has condemned Russia's recent large-scale drone and missile attacks on Ukraine, describing them as the largest such assaults since the war began over three years ago. These attacks, which occurred over two consecutive nights, have raised concerns about escalating violence and increasing civilian casualties. According to a UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission report, June 2025 marked the deadliest month for Ukrainian civilians in the three-year conflict, with at least 232 civilians killed and 1,343 injured. This represents a 54% increase in civilian casualties compared to June 2024, driven by a tenfold increase in Russian missile and drone strikes. The UN has called for a ceasefire amid the ongoing aggression and destruction. The surge in civilian harm underscores the intensification of Russia's military campaign against Ukraine.
