Ukraine war becoming deadlier for women and girls

The past winter was the deadliest for women and girls in #Ukraine since the first year of the full-scale Russian invasion, Sabine Friezer Gunes, @unwomen representative in Ukraine told reporters. Some 199 women and girls were killed between January and March 2026. "Each woman and girl killed was someone who had plans, purposes, had people who loved them deeply and who deeply depended on them," Ms. Gunes said.
