• Russian troops launched a war against Ukraine in 2014, when they occupied Crimea and parts of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions. On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine from the northern, eastern and southern directions. In April, the Defense Forces of Ukraine expelled the occupiers from the northern regions of Ukraine, and in the fall they de-occupied parts of the Kherson, Mykolaiv, and Kharkiv regions. In Kharkiv Oblast, 29 settlements remained under occupation. The occupiers are still periodically shelling Kharkiv and regularly the border towns of the region.
