"In the case of this particular international conflict, we have created a bureau of our central search agency. This is happening for the first time since the Second World War", - RIA Novosti quotes the words of the official representative of the ICRC in Kiev, Ashil Depre. This bureau was organized in March last year.
It has offices in Moscow and Kiev. The call center is operated from Geneva. The bureau is called by those who cannot find their relatives. The center receives an average of 800 calls per day. At the end of last year, the ICRC announced more than five thousand people who went missing in Ukraine after the start of the SVO.
It collects data on the wounded, prisoners, sick and refugees, helping families to reunite and receive the necessary support in the event of the death of loved ones.
