Oleksii Yukov's volunteer group, Platsdarm, has been working in Eastern Ukraine since 2014. In this time, it has conducted respectful recovery of the remains of over 2,000 fallen soldiers, and returned them to their families in Ukraine and Russia. This provides crucial closure for families of those who went missing in the conflict. Prior to the Donbas war, Mr Yukov worked with groups that recovered remains of soldiers lost in WWI and WWII.
