A UN report pointed out that Ukraine was also responsible for the attack by Russian-backed separatists on a nursing home in the eastern Luhansk region in March that killed dozens of people helped.
The Associated Press said at least 22 of the 71 patients survived the attack, but the exact number of people killed is unknown.
According to the report of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, a few days before the attack, Ukrainian soldiers took positions in the nursing home and targeted the building.
The document does not conclude that Ukrainian soldiers or separatists committed a war crime. But he says the war in the nursing home is emblematic of the human rights office’s concerns about the potential use of “human shields” to thwart military operations.
