Oleksandr Makhow was killed in a battle in eastern Ukraine. On 24 February, Russian troops had entered Ukrainian territory in what the Russian president declared a 'special military operation', resulting in fighting and destruction in the country and fears of shortages in energy and food products globally. According to the UNHCR on 06 May, more than 5.8 million Ukrainians have left Ukraine to seek refuge in neighboring countries. Western countries have responded with various sets of sanctions against Russian state majority-owned companies and interests in a bid to bring an end to the conflict. EPA/OLEG PETRASYUK
