On the night of 3 April, a swarm of Russian drones attacked Kharkiv, in Ukraine’s northeast.
The country’s second-largest city has been targeted almost incessantly since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion.
But this time was worse than usual, because, when rescue workers arrived at the scene, there was a second strike. Three of them were killed.
The following Friday, it happened again when Russian missiles hit Zaporizhzhia, a major city in Ukraine’s southeast.
Rescuers and journalists rushed to the scene, and then two more missiles hit.
In total, four people were killed and more than 20 were wounded, including two local journalists.
At least, some of those in the attacker’s army care about the legality from time to time, for fear of finding themselves on the wrong end of a war crime tribunal at some point.
