We are sharing an official document developed by the Coordination Headquarters for the Treatment of Prisoners of War. This roadmap contains guidance for family members of service personnel who are currently in captivity, as well as for individuals who have already returned. It includes: stages of interaction with state authorities; procedures for applying for assistance; access to medical, psychological, and legal support; key contact information.

In the event of a person going missing under special circumstances, it is important to act promptly and in accordance with officially approved procedures. We are sharing two official resources that may assist families in such situations. The step-by-step guidance, prepared by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, outlines the necessary actions, filing procedures, and contact information for relevant state authorities. We also recommend reviewing the memo developed by the Office of the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights, which provides general information for families of prisoners of war, missing persons, and unlawfully detained civilians.

The Aggregator tool has been updated with two new data sources. OpenSanctionsDB is a database that consolidates information on sanctions lists, politically exposed persons (PEPs), and entities involved in corruption schemes, financial crimes, and sanctions evasion. Integrating OpenSanctions provides the system with more comprehensive and structured datasets compiled from official sources worldwide. In turn, this enables more effective detection of links between individuals and organizations during investigations. The second integrated source remains undisclosed.

The launch of our private, custom-deployed instance of CVAT.ai — a powerful, open-source annotation tool designed for computer vision teams. This marks a significant step in streamlining our data labeling workflows for machine learning and AI model development.

• Secure and Role-Restricted. Built with security at the forefront, our deployment restricts access to only authorized project personnel. Whether you’re an annotator, reviewer, or admin, the system is tailored to your role and responsibilities.
• Project-Focused Precision. Each annotation task is linked to a clearly defined project structure, allowing for organized collaboration, consistent labeling schemas, and targeted performance metrics.
• Custom Tooling for High-Quality Results. From polygons to segmentation masks, our instance supports all critical annotation types. We’ve also integrated project-specific labeling schemas to align with our training data requirements.
•  Productivity Meets Oversight. Annotator activity is tracked in real-time, and all annotations are versioned and auditable. This means better oversight, fewer errors, and higher-quality data to feed into our ML pipelines. 
• Built for Scale and Integration. With full API access and webhook support, our CVAT instance connects smoothly with the rest of our AI infrastructure, ensuring annotation tasks can be automated and scaled as needed.

This launch reflects our continued investment in secure, scalable, and smart infrastructure to support advanced AI development. By combining CVAT’s flexibility with our team’s expertise, we’re pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in machine learning workflows.
