This work aims to shed light on the key factors contributing to the development of environmental resistance and the urgent need to address the growing problem of antibiotic resistance (AR) under the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. The article provides an overview of the main mechanisms involved in AR development and dissemination globally and the challenges posed by the ongoing war in Ukraine. The work outlines various international initiatives to reduce AR, including the concept of “One Health” and the strategies established, which are the key to reducing the effects on public health. Addressing AR globally and in conflict areas requires a comprehensive approach. This involves implementing monitoring of the microorganism's resistance levels to antibiotics, controlling the use of antimicrobial drugs, increasing public awareness of the AR, introducing educational programs to prevent the improper use of antibiotics, and adopting environmentally safe methods for the disposal of waste from medical, food, and other industries that produce or use antibiotics. Such initiatives are essential for promoting the responsible use of antibiotics, preventing the spread of AR infections, and preserving the effectiveness of existing antimicrobial drugs. |
