Civilians in Ukraine are having difficulty acquiring food due to the ongoing conflict, which has lasted more than a month. The United Nations World Food Program (WFP) uses trucks and trains to deliver food aid to the most vulnerable people in the country, where the humanitarian crisis is emerging. With food aid delivered to date by the WFP reaching 1 million people, it is estimated that 45 percent of the population is worried about finding enough food.

“We are in fear because there is no electricity. We were without bread at home, thankfully we had flour, she managed us,” said 76-year-old Nadejda Ot, who received bread distributed in the Barbashova district of Kharkiv.

The UN continues to set up logistics points and other centers across the country to continue providing support to those who remain in the country. WFP is seeking donations of $590 million over the next 3 months to help 3.1 million people in Ukraine as well as Ukrainian refugees in neighboring countries.

Seven newly identified victims of the 1995 Srebrenica genocide were buried at the Potocari Memorial Cemetery in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the 30th anniversary of the massacre. The genocide, recognized by international courts, claimed over 8,300 Muslim lives during the Bosnian War.

The ceremony drew leaders and officials from across the region and Europe, including Turkish Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş, Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković, and French and NATO representatives.

Bosnian official Denis Bećirović emphasized the years of propaganda and planning that led to the genocide, while French President Emmanuel Macron warned that denialism has no place in EU-aspiring nations. NATO’s Mark Rutte called it a lasting tragedy linking the Netherlands and Bosnia.

Sirens marked the remembrance across cities, and symbolic tributes—including a silent jump from Mostar Bridge and the release of lilies—honored the victims. The newly buried include victims aged between 17 and 67.
