Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Issue #1029 Story of the Week: Published: TUESDAY February 24, 2026: ‘DARK ANNIVERSARY: Four Long Years’ by ZUMA Press photographer in Ukraine Tommaso Fumagalli: Four years ago, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, resulting in the largest armed conflict in Europe since World War II. Initially conceived as a rapid operation to overthrow Kyiv, the conflict has evolved into a prolonged, high-intensity war that is reshaping European security. Despite substantial human and economic costs, Ukraine has maintained its defense with sustained Western support, while Russia has mobilized its economy and society for an extended confrontation. Although the war remains unresolved and significant uncertainties persist, its fourth anniversary provides a moment to reflect on its profound impacts on regional security, transatlantic cohesion, military technology, and the global balance of power. Welcome to ‘DARK ANNIVERSARY: Four Long Years’
