The European Court of Human Rights will hold a hearing in February 2019 on Ukraine v. Russia regarding alleged violations of the European Convention on Human Rights by Russia in Crimea. Ukraine maintains that Russia has exercised control over Crimea since February 2014 and jurisdiction over situations resulting in Convention violations. Ukraine alleges violations of various rights such as the right to life and prohibition of torture. The Court had previously issued interim measures calling on Russia and Ukraine to refrain from actions endangering civilians.
