(ANSA) - ROME, AUGUST 04 - "The Ukrainian forces have put the civilian population in danger by setting up bases and using weapons in built-up areas, including schools and hospitals. These tactics violate international humanitarian law because they transform civilian targets into military targets".
Amnesty International denounced this after a research conducted between April and July in the Kharkiv, Donbass and Mykolaiv regions.
"Most of the population centers where the Ukrainian soldiers were located were miles away from the front lines and, therefore, there would have been alternatives: the Ukrainian army failed in its duty" to "protect" the civilians.
