According to an estimate by the United Nations human rights agency, Russia's war against Ukraine killed at least 6,702 civilians and injured at least 10,479 from Feb. 24 through Dec. 4.

The agency said the actual figures are likely considerably higher since the information from some places is delayed, and many reports of civilian casualties still need to be confirmed.
