Emergency assistance to Conflict-affected population in Eastern Ukraine
Since 2014, a deep political crisis in Ukraine resulted in a major internal conflict, which led to massive displacement of civilian population and heavy destruction of infrastructures and private properties. A ceasefire lasting since 15 February 2015 has allowed the Swiss Humanitarian Aid (SHA) to conduct 2 assessment missions, which have identifed immediate assistance needed by the populations in the Oblasts of Donetsk and Lugansk.

Contexte |
Ukraine went through a deep political crisis in 2014 which led to a major internal conflict. Protests and rising tensions between Ukrainian authorities and armed groups, allegedly backed by the Russian Federation, started in April 2014 and led to open conflict in the South and East of Ukraine. Since then, heavy fighting has continued in the eastern area of Donbas between the Ukrainian security forces and armed groups. As of 20 March 2015, the Ukrainian government reported more than 1.1 million registered IDPs across the country. Some 700’000 persons sought refuge abroad. Between mid-April 2014 and March 2015 some 6000 civilian people (including 63 children) have died and more than 13,000 (including 159 children) have been injured in the conflict area of eastern Ukraine. Many IDPs have exhausted their financial resources and face difficulties paying for accommodation, food, and non-food items. The humanitarian situation hs been deteriorating since December 2014 rapidly and is likely to deteriorate further. On 12 February 2015, an agreement was reached between several European heads of state by which a ceasefire would start on 15 February. The ceasefire is in the meantime mostly respected. Heavy weapons started to be withdrawn from the front line buffer zone. Two SHA assessment missions were conducted; the first to Kharkov and Donetsk oblasts and Dnepropetrovsk, the second SHA mission to the buffer zone and Non-Government Controlled Areas. |
