Dall’analisi di Dmitriy Sergeyev, Asia Times. November 24 marks nine months since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began. Despite the expectation of the Kremlin – and many international analysts – Ukraine did not fall within days. It repelled Russia’s advance on the capital Kiev, turned the tide on the battlefields and has now retaken half of the territory captured in Russia’s initial push. Ukraine’s military now has initiative and momentum on the battlefield. But the human cost of this resistance has been enormous. Tens of thousands of Ukrainian soldiers and civilians have lost their lives. The recent UN Human Rights report confirmed the death of 6,595 civilians and warned that there are many more likely to come. One-third of the 44 million population has been displaced: 6.5 million within Ukraine and almost 8 million as refugees in other European countries.
