•  Most casualties among civilian population are caused by explosive devices with large area of effect, including heavy artillery and multiple-launch rocket system fire, missile strike and air raids. 
•  Actual casualty count may be much higher, since data from areas of intensive combat operation are received with delay. In particular, this applies to Mariupol, Volnovakha, Izium, Sievierodonetsk, Rubizhne and Trostianets, where multiple civilian casualties are reported.
