I am kind of suspicious that Russia has killed at least 10,749 civilians just in Mariupol.

Yeah. This was from April of last year:

The mayor of the besieged Ukrainian port city of Mariupol said Monday that more than 10,000 civilians have died in the Russian siege of his city. The death toll could surpass 20,000, he said, noting that dead bodies were "carpeted through the streets."

That may not be documented to the degree that Ukraine's Prosecutor General's Office is requiring for their work, but...

That's the confirmed number, I also believe the real number to be much higher than that.
