The Parliamentary Assembly's Resolution 2573 expresses strong support for Ukraine in its struggle against Russian aggression, particularly concerning the plight of missing persons, prisoners of war, and civilians held in captivity. As of September 2024, nearly 66,000 individuals are reported missing or captured, with many families left in anguish due to a lack of information. The Assembly condemns the treatment of these individuals, highlighting violations of international humanitarian law, including torture and enforced disappearances. It calls for the immediate and humane treatment of captives, their release, and accountability for war crimes. The Assembly urges member states to prioritize the issue, support rehabilitation efforts for released individuals, and enhance international mechanisms to ensure justice and transparency regarding the fate of those missing. It emphasizes the need for cooperation with civil society and the International Committee of the Red Cross to facilitate the safe return of captives and to maintain international focus on this humanitarian crisis.
