Zurich: It emerged that at least 902 civilians had been killed and 1,459 wounded in Ukraine until March 19, the U.N. human rights office (OHCHR) said on Sunday. Most of the fatalities were from explosive weapons such as shelling from heavy artillery and multiple-launch rocket systems, and missile and airstrikes, OHCHR reported. The actual toll is thought to be considerably higher since OHCHR has not yet been able to receive or verify casualty reports from several badly hit cities including Mariupol, it said.
