dc.description.abstractThe article explores the question of crimes committed against the civilian population during the war in Ukraine and the possible ways of bringing to justice those responsible. A full-scale aggression launched by Russia has caused death and widespread suffering of thousands of Ukrainian civilians and combatants. The article focuses on the events following 24th February, 2022, bearing in mind that the conflict had started much earlier – with the illegal annexation of Crimea and the beginning of fighting in eastern part of the Ukraine in 2014. After introductory remarks in the first section, the second part of this article will be focusing on different acts constituting war crimes that were committed during the war in Ukraine, and the third part will address existing accountability mechanisms and briefly discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each of them.en
dc.description.abstractArtykuł porusza kwestię zbrodni na ludności cywilnej popełnionych podczas konfliktu zbrojnego w Ukrainie i sposobów pociągnięcia sprawców do odpowiedzialności. Rosyjska agresja spowodowała śmierć i cierpienie tysięcy ukraińskich obywateli, zarówno cywilów jak i kombatantów. Analiza ograniczona jest do wydarzeń mających miejsce po pełnoskalowej napaści z 24 lutego 2022 roku, co pozostaje bez wpływu na fakt, że konflikt ten rozpoczął się o wiele wcześniej – wraz działaniami zbrojnymi na wschodzie Ukrainy i aneksją Krymu w 2014 roku. Część pierwsza stanowi wprowadzenie, wskazuje akty prawne mające zastosowanie do oceny omawianej sytuacji oraz materiały źródłowe wykorzystane do przygotowania niniejszego opracowania. W części drugiej omówione zostały poszczególne czyny mogące stanowić zbrodnie wojenne, natomiast część trzecia stanowi refleksję na temat istniejących mechanizmów egzekwowania odpowiedzialności domniemanych sprawców, z uwzględnieniem wad i zalet każdego z nich.pl
