INTRODUCTION The demarcation line (the line of contact)1 and the ‘grey zone’ between the government-controlled2 and uncontrolled territories3 of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions separates the parties to the conflict in the east of Ukraine. The areas controlled by the Ukrainian authorities and bordering the ‘grey zone’ are very politically sensitive, highly militarised, and fall under a special governance regime that is different from the rest of the country. In the absence of a comprehensive political settlement and amid uncertain prospects, it is unclear how long this situation will remain. It is highly likely that over the next few years, Ukrainians in areas adjacent to the contact line will live under very particular and unusual governance structures, and in varying degrees of danger.

    KREMLIN’S BLACK BOOK Russian War Against Ukraine Ukrainian losses and costs as a result of the Russian temporary occupation of Crimea and its military aggression in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions OCTOBER 2015 Russian War Against Ukraine Blood and deaths on Putin’s hands The Russian Federation led by President Vladimir Putin has waged a war against Ukraine since February 2014. Russia’s temporary occupation of Crimea, its further aggression in the Donetsk & Luhansk regions, direct support of international terrorists on the territory of Ukraine, as well as black- mail and economic pressure have led to tremendous casualties, economic and infrastructure damages in Ukraine. Russian war against Ukraine is ongoing. Consistent fighting makes it difficult to name accurate numbers of those killed and wounded. They will be revealed inevitably just as the international condemnation of Vladimir Putin’s policy. Each victim will not be forgotten. Putin’s regime must be stopped. CONTENTS І. Our Losses.
