#Crimea

For Ukrainians, peace is not just an end to fighting—it is the full restoration of their land, the return of their people, and accountability for those who waged war against them.

Russia’s “3-day” full-scale invasion of Ukraine is nearing 1000 days of war, with the Ukrainian Armed Forces defying expectations and dismantling what was once seen as the world’s second-best army. From troops to tanks, Russia’s losses have been staggering—thanks in part to Ukraine’s arsenal. Which weapons are making a difference?

Russia is gradually losing its Black Sea fleet, specifically it’s large landing ships in the Black Sea, completely negating the possibility of conducting any landing operations.

For centuries, Russia has tried to eradicate dissent—including in territories it colonized—by sending political prisoners to penal colonies across its empire. Today, this system has mutated once again—this time, in newly occupied Ukraine.
