Tha Darren Linc a鈥� siubhal聽脿 Slovyansk, baile a chunnaic sabaid chruaidh as t-samhradh seo chaidh, tro mheadhain na d霉thcha chun phr矛omh bhaile Kiev. A鈥� coinneachadh ri Ugr脿inich 脿bhaisteach bho sear agus siar, tha 贰貌谤辫补 airson barrachd fhaighinn a-mach mun d貌igh sa bheil an cogadh as 霉ire san Roinn 贰貌谤辫补 a鈥� bualadh air beatha dhaoine.

Bho chaidh an t-seann cheann-suidhe Viktor Yanukovych a chur 脿s a dhreuchd aig toiseach na bliadhna, tha Crimea air sgaradh bhon Ugr脿in聽agus air i fh猫in a cheangal ris an Ruis.

Ged nach t脿inig f貌irneart a Chrimea, tha cogadh san ear air a bhith a' leantainn bhon Ghiblein. Tha fois-f貌irneart a chaidh a dhearbhadh air a' 5mh l脿 den t-Sultain tric ga briseadh, 's chan eil feadhainn de sg矛rean a鈥� gabhail feairt air idir.

鈥楽 e Elena Sergeevna aonan de ch貌rr is 400,000 duine a tha gun dachaigh anns an Ugr脿in air sg脿th 鈥榮 a鈥� chogaidh. B鈥� fheudar dhi a dachaigh agus a teaghlach ann an Debaltsevo, eadar Lugansk is Donetsk, fh脿gail. Tha c貌rr is tr矛 m矛osan bho chunnaic i iad:

鈥淏鈥� fhe脿rr leam gun robh a h-uile dad mar a bha e mus do th貌isich an cogadh. Bha sinn s矛theil c貌mhla gun guth air sabaid. A-nis, chan eil mi a' tuigsinn c脿ite bheil sinn a鈥� buntainn. 鈥楽 e an Ugr脿in a tha san leth seo dhen d霉thaich, ach chan e a tha san leth eile. Chan urrainn dhomh a thuigsinn.鈥�

This week鈥檚 贰貌谤辫补 is a special report examining the impact of war on the people of Ukraine. Darren Laing travels from Slovyansk, a city which saw heavy fighting in the summer, through Central Ukraine to the capital, Kiev. Meeting with ordinary Ukrainians from both sides of the front, 贰貌谤辫补 looks to highlight how this latest war in Europe is affecting a population.

Since former President Viktor Yanukovych was ousted by popular protest at the beginning of the year, Crimea has seceded from Ukraine and aligned itself with Russia. The two eastern regions of Lugansk and Donetsk, home to much of Ukraine鈥檚 industrial output, have themselves voted to leave Ukraine. While Crimea鈥檚 secession was completed without bloodshed, war over the eastern regions has continued since April. Despite a ceasefire being in place since 5th September, numerous breaches continue, while some areas have completely ignored any truce.

One of over 400,000 internally displaced people (IDPs) from the conflict is Elena Sergeevna from Debaltsevo, between Lugansk and Donetsk. 贰貌谤辫补 met her in Slovyansk on the day she gave birth to her son. She鈥檇 left her family behind three months prior:

鈥淚 wish everything was like it was before the war. We lived in peace, there was no fighting. Now, I don鈥檛 understand to whom, to where we belong. One half of the country is Ukraine, the other is not. I can鈥檛 understand.鈥�
