UN: Russian strikes on critical infrastructure may have violated international law principles

That's according to Reuters, Ukrinform reports.

"We are gravely concerned that some of the attacks appear to have targeted critical civilian infrastructure ... indicating that these strikes may have violated the principles on the conduct of hostilities under international humanitarian law," OHCHR spokesperson Ravina Shamdasani said at a news conference on Tuesday.

She also urged the Russian Federation "to refrain from further escalation, and to take all feasible measures to prevent civilian casualties and damage to civilian infrastructure."

Early on October 10, Russian troops launched multiple air strikes across Ukraine, directing fire against the civilian population. At least 19 civilians were killed and 108 others injured in the attack. In addition, critical infrastructure suffered significant damage.
