"Assessing the Human Cost: Ukraine Two Years After Russia's Invasion"

The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights warns of the long-lasting impact of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, with 10,882 conflict-related deaths reported so far. A Russian drone attack triggers a fire in Ukraine's Odesa, while France's Macron plans to host an international conference in support of Ukraine. Germany's parliament votes for delivering "long-range weapons" to Ukraine, but rejects a motion to supply Taurus cruise missiles. The UK announces new sanctions against Russia, and Denmark signs a 10-year security guarantee with Ukraine. Germany sees a significant drop in Ukrainian immigrants following the invasion, with 277,000 arriving in 2023 compared to 1.1 million in 2022. UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine reports widespread human rights violations and calls for full investigations and reparations.
