A United Nations (UN) monitoring team in Ukraine said on Tuesday that Russia had detained over 800 civilians since the Russia-Ukraine crisis began in February 2022, with almost 77 of them being executed, according to Reuters. The UN mission's report claimed that Ukraine also violated international law by unjustly arresting civilians, but the number is far lower than that of Russia.
