Over the past two years, the war in Ukraine has unfolded with devastating and hopeful moments captured through poignant images.

From the initial refugee crisis and shocking scenes of civilian casualties to the resilience shown in rebuilding destroyed infrastructure and the global support expressed through cultural events like Eurovision, each photo tells a part of the complex narrative.

Additionally, the conflict has seen modern warfare tactics with drone usage, international incidents that almost escalated tensions, and significant political shifts, including Sweden's NATO membership.

The war's toll on human lives, cities reduced to rubble, and the persistent fight for sovereignty continues to mark this period.

Amidst the ongoing conflict, international aid and symbolic acts of defiance, like Ukraine's shift in Christmas celebration, showcase a blend of despair, resilience, and hope.
