Cheap armed drones are putting lethal power into ever more hands to kill at distance from victim and law. Civilians and humanitarians are paying the price. In Kherson, Ukraine, and in an increasing number of places globally. Technology is outpacing accountability. And humanity.

TAYLOR: Putin is firing at civilians, increasing number of ballistic missiles he fires into Ukraine because he’s desperate to get Ukrainians to stop fighting and surrender, but they won’t. I’ve been in Ukraine, they are determined to last it out, and maintain their independence.

How much more do those in power need to see before they act? It's time they #ActForHumanity! International humanitarian law is being violated, and civilians and aid workers are paying the price. This #WorldHumanitarianDay, Muzoon Al-Mellehan added her voice. Add yours and share.

Nebenzya, Russia’s envoy to the UN, claims Ukraine uses strike drones to “kill and harm Russian civilians” and accuses Kyiv of “gamifying” warfare. He says this undermines the fundamental principles of armed conflict. WHAT A NONSENSE Ukraine has consistently operated within international law while defending itself from a state that invades, occupies, deports children, executes prisoners, bombs civilians in their homes. Ukrainian children and entire families are being killed at night in their apartments, while sleeping in their own beds, by Russian missiles and drones. And Russia still has the nerve to lecture Ukraine about the “principles” of warfare. There is not enough space on this platform to list all the laws and norms Russia has violated.

Kherson needs urgent attention and help‼️ Russians are cutting the main road that connects Kherson to the rest of Ukraine, Kherson-Mykolaiv highway, by attacking vehicles with drones. They’ve besieged Kherson from the sky. Thousands still live there. Their situation worsens by the day. Russian drones hunt civilians in the infamous “human safari.” Now, Kherson is being cut off.

📍 Gaza | This armed conflict continues, and civilians are paying a heavy price. Their lives have been turned upside down, and they have lost their homes and loved ones. We continue to call for respect for international humanitarian law and the protection of civilians.

Kherson: 20+ cars burned by drones overnight. Russians are targeting old ladies and children with drones. Their pilots see their targets. Russian propagandist channels threaten to strike the hospital in Kherson. These are war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Ukrainians are evacuating people, pets… and even goats from the flooded areas in the Kherson region. Meanwhile, Russia chose to run and abandon civilians (let alone pets and other animals) on the temporary occupied left bank of Dnipro… #Ukraine #NovaKakhovka #RussiaUkraineWar #RussiaIsATerroristState #RussianWarCrimes #Kherson

"[Russians] targeted farmers who were harvesting crops. They hit cars, KAMAZ trucks." The Russian army is deliberately attacking civilians and cars in Kherson with drones. Every day, Ukrainian Defenders record hundreds of Russian drones flying towards the city. Such attacks on civilians are a crime against humanity, and, according to the UN, they are the main cause of civilian deaths near the frontline. 📹: DW

RUTTE: Ukraine is number one in the world in drone and counter-drone technology. NATO is learning from Ukraine on drones and getting latest insights from battlefield. We can still teach Ukraine few things. NATO is becoming stronger while helping Ukraine stay strong in the fight.

🔴 The latest UN report exposes Russia’s systematic use of drones and deportations drive civilians from their homes across Kherson, Mykolaiv, and Zaporizhzhia regions. These are war crimes and crimes against humanity, part of a state policy of depopulation. My comment ⬇️

Wars have rules. When civilians, including humanitarians and first responders, are repeatedly struck, this is a pattern that defies international humanitarian law. People in #Ukraine need protection, humanitarian access and funding now. Edem Wosornu briefs the Security Council.

Kherson, Ukraine - a city on the very front line of war. It is never quiet. Residents of Kherson clutch a drone detector in the car, the screen flickering and bleeping like a cardiac monitor to reassure them that they are still alive. Kherson has lived through the horror of occupation and the brief euphoria of liberation and then this endless terror ever since, from Russian army positions just across the river shooting all day and all night at people in their homes and targeting them with explosives from small drones as they go to work and to hospital and to buy food. Kherson like all of Ukraine deserves its freedom, its dignity and to live its peaceful life once again. 📹 felicityspector/Instagram
