Background

Over the last four years, Russian attacks have severely damaged Ukraine's energy infrastructure, causing widespread disruption of essential services and profound hardship for the Ukrainian people. In this webinar, Amnesty International researchers and campaigners in Ukraine and London will explore multiple dimensions of the current humanitarian crisis and analyze it from the perspectives of international human rights and international humanitarian law. The webinar will include time for panelists to address questions from webinar participants and conclude with an overview of actions that participants can take to stand in solidarity with Ukrainians as the war continues into a fifth year.
