On International Day of the Victims of Enforced Disappearances, the U.S. Embassy calls on Russia to immediately end the occupation of Crimea and release all Ukrainian political prisoners on the peninsula.

"On International Day of the Victims of Enforced Disappearances, we remember at least 43 individuals who have gone missing since Russia's forces occupied Crimea in 2014. We call on Russia to immediately end its occupation of Crimea, release all Ukrainian political prisoners it unjustly holds, and return full control of the peninsula to Ukraine," the U.S. Embassy said in a statement on Facebook.
