The Istanbul talks between the delegates of Russia and Ukraine undoubtedly led to some important developments in the efforts to end the ongoing war in Ukraine that has already devastated cities, led millions of Ukrainians to flee from their home, left thousands dead and injured and isolated the economy of Russia. After the peace talks, which received global attention, Russia announced that it will significantly lessen its military operations in Kyiv and Chernihiv, a northern city of Ukraine.

By this time, the Russia-Ukraine war has reached around one month. Of course, many efforts including economic sanctions against Russia, diplomatic talks of the United States, France, Germany and some other countries and bilateral talks directly between Russian and Ukrainian delegates were made. But no efforts got any light of hope in resolving the crisis and there is no sign of ending the war. War is going on in different cities of Ukraine including Kyiv, Mariupol and Kherson.

Of course, this is not the only accident in the rivers. Last year, a small-sized passenger-carrying launch was directly hit and capsized by a bigger launch in the same river.
