From Invasion to Stalemate: Unfolding the Russia-Ukraine Conflict (2022–2024)
The Russia-Ukraine war, now over 1,000 days old, has profoundly impacted global geopolitics, economy, and humanity. The conflict began with Russia’s invasion in February 2022, aiming to topple Ukraine’s government. Ukraine’s resilience, bolstered by international military and humanitarian aid, repelled initial advances, leading to prolonged battles in the Donbas region and beyond.
Massive human suffering, marked by civilian deaths, displacement, and destroyed infrastructure, underscores the war. Meanwhile, sanctions and military support from the West, coupled with evolving strategies like drone warfare, have prolonged hostilities. Amid escalating violence, peace remains elusive.
