Context:

Straightaway after the annexation of Crimea in 2014, Russia launched an armed aggression in eastern Ukraine. The fighting is between the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the one hand and the Russian army and Russian-backed militants who control parts of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions on the other. Officially, the Russian Federation does not recognize its invasion of Ukraine, despite the facts and evidence presented by Ukraine.

According to the Human Rights Commissioner of the Verkhovna Rada Lyudmila Denisova, during the armed conflict in Donbass almost 14 thousand Ukrainians died, of which 4 thousand are civilians.

July 22, 2020 Trilateral Contact Group (TCG) agreed on a full and comprehensive ceasefire in Donbass from midnight on July 27. At the beginning of 2021, the situation in Donbass worsened. Ukrainian side regularly reports violations by the fighters of the ceasefire regime. For a year of the ceasefire 45 Ukrainian servicemen were killed and 163 were injured, TCG reported on 27 July.
