Tokom skoro tri godine rata, u Ukrajini je nestalo oko 54.000 osoba, a hiljade ukrajinskih porodica traga sa svojim najmilijim uprkos nedostatku informacija. Iako se potraga odražava na njihovo mentalno zdravlje, oni gaje nadu da postoji mogućnost da je član baš njihove porodice živ i u zatočeništvu, te da je moguć njegov ili njen povratak kući.

Mikhail Savchenko witnessed war crimes three decades ago in Bosnia, and again in his native Ukraine. In seeking justice for Russian forces’ violations, rights experts say Ukraine must avoid Bosnia’s mistakes and pursue a comprehensive approach to transitional justice to achieve sustainable peace.

‘Weekend warriors’ were volunteer fighters who popped in and out of war zones in the 1990s. Many came from Montenegro, but few have ever faced justice for the war crimes they committed.

Amid Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine, the issue of restoring justice has gained particular importance. Since late 2022, when Ukraine liberated the territories of the Kharkiv and Kherson, the country has struggled to jumpstart transitional justice in these regions and those it hopes to reclaim from Russia. A new training program for civil servants seeks to accelerate the process of ensuring fair and equitable justice for all.

Increasing numbers of Ukrainians are learning demining techniques at a training school in Kosovo – hoping to make a difference back in their war-ravaged home country, which has been massively contaminated by explosive devices.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s adviser for sanctions told BIRN that the authorities in Bosnia and Herzegovina should do more to tackle Russian-linked schemes intended to dodge Western-imposed sanctions against Moscow.

Two years after the start of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, people in Kyiv and the surrounding areas say they feel forgotten by the international public after the global focus shifted towards Gaza. But despite the persistent hardships, they insist they won’t succumb to conflict fatigue.

Nick Teunissen was so intrigued by a photograph of a young Bosnian who went missing during the Srebrenica genocide, he decided to write a book that would illuminate some of the real lives behind the headlines and casualty figures.

On the eve of the second anniversary of the full scale Russian invasion, Ukrainians are experiencing feelings that citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina have long been familiar with: the fear of new escalations and destabilisation, the search for justice and the complicating fact that many perpetrators are out of reach, and the feeling that the world has turned its attention elsewhere.

Thirty years after the Ottoman-era Old Bridge in the Bosnian city of Mostar was brought down by artillery fire, a soldier who captured its collapse on video looks back on the destruction and reconstruction of this symbol of a divided city.
