Russian armed forces have been “systematically” committing crimes against humanity by hunting civilians using remote-controlled drones, the U.N.’s Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine said.

According to a report published Wednesday, since July 2024 Russian forces have periodically killed and injured Ukraine’s civilians living in an area stretching over 100 kilometers along the right bank of the Dnipro River, including the city of Kherson and its surroundings in southern Ukraine.

The drone attacks have been widespread, systematic, and “conducted as part of a coordinated state policy,” the report said.
