Amnesty Accuses Russia of Killing Hundreds of Civilians in Kharkiv

HeadlineJun 13, 2022

Heavy fighting is continuing in the eastern Ukrainian city of Severodonetsk as Russia moves closer to seizing all of the Luhansk region. Just one bridge remains connecting Severodonetsk to other areas still under Ukrainian control. This comes as Amnesty International has accused Russia of using indiscriminate shelling and cluster munitions to kill hundreds of civilians in the northeastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv. As Ukraine continues to press Western nations for more advanced weapons, Russia is claiming it struck a large arms depot Sunday in western Ukraine where Ukraine was storing weapons sent by the United States and allies. Twenty-two people were reportedly injured in the strike.
