At least 25,000 civilians have been killed in Mariupol, which is constantly bombarded by heavy bombs, thermobaric and phosphorus shells.

This was announced by the Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights Lyudmyla Denisova during the Second Additional Human Dimension Meeting of the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights.

"Another weapon that russia uses against Ukraine is sexual crimes. Rashists rape women and girls so that they do not want and cannot have children,” Denisova said.

She added that this is a genocide of the Ukrainian people and called for recognizing russia as a state that supports and finances terrorism.

Almost 96,000 deported Mariupol residents are being held in special camps in russia. British Intelligence has already counted 66 such camps.
