Maps of Potential Russian War Crimes in Ukraine

Since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the names of cities like Bucha, Mariupol and Kharkiv have become synonymous with the horrors that Russia is inflicting on the Ukrainian civilian population. Geolocating social media posts as well as on-the-ground accounts and visualising this information has become an important tool to make our readers aware of the extent of the Russian invasion. The following articles reconstruct and map potential war crimes committed by Russian soldiers in Ukraine:

• «It's horrifying» – graphics and photographs and show the extent of the disaster in Mariupol
• Reconstructing the events in Bucha: A shock that came with a premonition
• A collection of graphics that visualise news coming out of the Russia-Ukraine war; with maps on the use of cluster bombs in Kharvik, documented war crimes across the country, and verified locations of executed civilians in Bucha.
