UN inquiry says Russia has committed crimes against humanity in drone attacks

# UN experts have concluded that Russia’s military has committed “crimes against humanity” and “war crimes” in its drone attacks on civilians in Ukraine’s Kherson region. The Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine, established by the UN Human Rights Council, said Russian armed forces were “systematically” hitting civilians. Russia’s drone attacks are in the spotlight as Moscow has launched some of the heaviest missile and drone strikes of its three-year war in Ukraine, with US president Donald Trump voicing growing frustration with Russian president Vladimir Putin.
