Ukraine's Prosecutor General’s Office reported on Sept. 2 that it has recorded 31,506 war crimes and crimes of aggression by the Russian military in Ukraine since the start of the full-scale invasion on Feb. 24. Another 14,654 Russian crimes against national security were also reported.
The transfer would further expand Ukraine's fleet of Western-supplied fighter aircraft, which already includes American F-16s and French Mirage 2000s but remains insufficient to fully defend Ukrainian cities and infrastructure from daily Russian missile and drone attacks
The strikes are a part of Ukraine's ongoing "long-range sanctions" campaign targeting Russia's military-industrial and energy infrastructure deep behind the front line, as Kyiv seeks to impose higher costs on Moscow's war effort.
A Russian strike on a children's playground in Kherson left a father dead and his family seriously wounded.
The number includes 1,160 casualties that Russian forces suffered over the past day.
The latest estimates appear to be significantly higher than figures published earlier this month by independent Russian media outlets Mediazona and Meduza that estimated 352,000 Russian men between the ages of 18 and 59 have been killed since the start of the full-scale invasion in February 2022.
The move comes as European countries seek to strengthen regional defense cooperation amid growing uncertainty about U.S. security commitments.
The injured included a 36-year-old woman and her two daughters, ages 3 and 6. The girls' father was also killed in the attack, police later confirmed.
