Revision as of 20:52, 18 March 2024

The number of deaths during the 2013–2014 Ukraine crisis climbed to just over 200 during the Euromaidan protests and the ensuing pro-Russian unrest.

Euromaidan

Further information: Maidan casualties

During the events of the Euromaidan protests in Kyiv from 21 November 2013 through 23 February 2014, a total of 110–123 protesters and 18 police officers were killed in street clashes in the Ukrainian capital.[1][2][3] In addition, one more participant of the Euromaidan was stabbed to death in clashes with pro-Russian activists on 13 March 2014, in Donetsk.[4]

Crimean crisis

During the Russian annexation of Crimea from 20 February through 21 March 2014, six people were killed. The dead included: three protesters (two pro-Russian and one pro-Ukrainian),[5][6][7][8] two Ukrainian soldiers[9] and one Crimean SDF trooper.[10] The two Ukrainian soldiers who were killed are regularly included in the military death toll from the war in Donbass.[11] On 10 August 2016, Russia accused the Special Forces of Ukraine of conducting a raid near the Crimean town of Armyansk which killed two Russian servicemen. The government of Ukraine dismissed the report as a provocation.[12]

Odesa clashes and Kharkiv bombing

Between 26 January and 27 December 2014, sporadic clashes occurred in the city of Odesa. The deadliest of these were the 2 May 2014 Odesa clashes when 48 protesters were killed[13] (46 pro-Russian and 2 pro-Ukrainian).[14][15] In addition, one person was killed in a bomb explosion in Odesa on 27 December 2014. The same day, another man was killed in a bombing in the city of Kherson. Both men were identified as the bombers in both explosions.[16] Later, in 2015, on 22 February, a bomb exploded during a rally in Kharkiv leaving four people dead,[17] including a policeman.[18]
