Russia is committing war crimes and crimes against humanity by intentionally attacking civilian infrastructure – including vital energy systems – in Ukraine, an independent UN investigations panel said on Monday.
Russian forces have been targeting Ukrainian power infrastructure since the early months of the war in 2022, and massively ramped up these attacks at the beginning of last year’s winter, leaving millions of Ukrainians freezing in the darkness of their homes.
