The UN Office of Human Rights has received credible allegations of the use of cluster munitions in populated areas at least 24 times. This is stated on the UN profile in Russian language on Twitter. “The UN is also investigating allegations that the Ukrainian armed forces used such weapons.”

Cluster munitions are many small explosives that explode on impact, collected in a bomb, rocket or projectile and can cause numerous damages if used among the civilian population. Major countries such as Russia, China and the United States have not signed a convention at the turn of the century that obliges countries not to use them.
