On Monday, the Ukrainian general prosecutor's office said that 90 children have been killed and more than 100 wounded in Ukraine since Russia invaded on Feb. 24.

"The highest number of victims are in the Kyiv, Kharkiv, Donetsk, Chernihiv, Sumy, Kherson, Mykolayiv, and Zhytomyr regions," it said in a statement.

On the other hand, Russia deniedd targeting civilians in what it calls a "special operation" to demilitarise and "deNazify" Ukraine.

Yesterday two children were killed and two more children were wounded in Russia’s shelling on civil infrastructure facilities in Mykolaiv Region.

Due to bombardments and shelling, 379 educational institutions were damaged, and 59 of them were destroyed completely. Most destructions were reported in Donetsk Region (119 educational institutions), Mykolaiv Region (30), Sumy Region (28), Kyiv Region (35), Kherson Region (21), and the city of Kyiv (24).

The final data are yet to be reported, as it is impossible to inspect certain areas, where active hostilities are underway.
