Emergency workers and soldiers try to shift the rubble and debris after a Russia n attack that hit a residential building in Kharkiv, Ukraine , on Sep 24, 2024. "I don't put any hope in him," the 20-year-old student told Reuters in Kyiv city centre."In the end it depends on us."

The owner of a thriving bakery business was forced to flee her home in the Donetsk region a decade ago after fighting erupted between the Ukrainian government and Russian-backed militias in eastern Ukraine and two internationally brokered peace deals subsequently collapsed. That poll found that 31 per cent of respondents expected the war to go on"for years" and another 31 per cent said it was difficult to say.

Those agreements, known as the Minsk accords after the Belarusian capital where they were signed in 2014-15, quickly collapsed amid accusations from both sides of breaches. While large-scale fighting subsided after 2015, creating the contours of a frozen conflict, clashes flared up sporadically before Russia's invasion three years ago.
