(ANSA-AFP) - BELGRADE, NOV 25 - According to Reuters, an
official with the International Commission on Missing Persons
(ICMP) stated on Thursday that over 15,000 people have gone
missing in Ukraine as a result of the conflict. According to
Matthew Holliday, the ICMP's programme director for Europe, it
was unclear how many people had been forcibly transferred, were
being held in detention in Russia, were alive but separated from
their family members, or had died and been buried in makeshift
graves. Even after the fighting stops, the process of
investigating the missing in Ukraine will take years, according
to Holliday. (ANSA-AFP).
