MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is currently trying to locate about 15,000 people who went missing during the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and is working with all relevant authorities, including those in Moscow, ICRC Director of Operations Martin Schuepp told Sputnik.
"In the context of this conflict, we're currently looking to clarify the fate and whereabouts of about 15,000 people. These are civilians and servicemen from both sides," Schuepp said.
He added that the ICRC was working with relevant authorities, including Russian ombudswoman Tatiana Moskalkova, to find information for the families of the missing.
