The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe has finished evacuating its international staff from Ukraine, its Secretary General Helga Schmid told a meeting of its 57 participating states on Monday.
"Since we met on Thursday, I am pleased to report that the remaining teams of international mission members have now moved to safety," Schmid said in the text of a speech.
"This means that the almost 500 international mission members present in Ukraine at the outset of the Russian military operation have now been evacuated."
