This cute dog and its owner are residents of Ukraine, and on this day, they are leaving their hometown. They, along with other Ukrainians, evacuate every day whenever possible. The war is advancing, making life harder for everyone living near the frontline. Sloviansk in the Donetsk region

Hunter and prey-such is our human world when chaos takes the upper hand. This evacuation of Ukrainian civilians took place last week, and it was a success. This is the Donetsk region, frontline Druzhkivka...

I always try to write about my people, about the moments that don’t get as much coverage as the videos of destruction in my country’s cities after another russian attack. In the video is 14-year-old Daria, talking about life in the city of Kramatorsk.

…a teddy bear for children, as a gift during the evacuation of kids from the life-threatening cities of my country. This has never happened before, but it is driven by the experience of war and by care-care above all. Children come into this world, yet they see such different realities. Ukraine…

These are footage from today, or rather-this morning! russia is killing my country, my people are dying at the hands of russians. At 00:17, there is a rescuer, and in his arms is a child They are trying to save them, trying to find them while they are still breathing.

This is my hometown in the video, and today it suffered too. This is Kremenchuk - a city in Ukraine whose name doesn't pop up in news feeds very often, but tonight it got hit as well.

I remember the times when expectations of the future were tied to the hope of seeing, or writing myself, that peace had finally come to our homes... but that feeling is gone. This is something abnormal, yet it's a part of our life, and we didn't even choose this.

The moment a drone or missile whistles nearby, 🇺🇦 women instantly become a shield for their children—covering them with their bodies, holding them tightly, covering their eyes and ears, comforting them. Every Ukrainian mother, sister, & grandmother is always ready to become a shelter. Thread 1/5🧵

"Stop the russian occupation of Oleshky!" "Increase pressure on the russian Federation, ensure humanitarian access to the city, and guarantee the safe evacuation of civilians!"

The organizers called on the international community to demand that russia open a humanitarian corridor and evacuate the civilian population. In Oleshky, nearly 6,000 people, including about 200 children, remain without safe access to territory controlled by Ukraine. 📹 Ukrinform

War is always saturated with the most negative moments, which I try to smooth out for the world by showing and telling about life in Ukraine. I don't lay claim to being the best writer or the voice of Ukraine; I write the best I can, and often the way not only my mind, but also my soul, tells me to.

Right now, I'm just restraining myself as much as possible not to write a lot of... a lot of bad words here. …this is the heart of Ukraine, Kyiv today, people were just saving their lives, climbing out of a second-floor window, these are the first minutes after the russian strike on the building!

russian bastards are just mocking the residents of Ukraine in plain sight of everyone who can see and hear in this world. I don't even know how to describe all these horrible videos from the cities of my country-in this case, the heart of Ukraine, which the russians are working hard to destroy.

...it was yesterday, on the coast of Odesa; Ukrainians here know how to distract themselves from the sounds of war. Just a melody, just the sound of the sea, just like-minded people around you who simply want to love and live in peace with themselves and with everyone else on our beautiful planet.

…Another evacuation of elderly residents from the town of Orikhiv in the Zaporizhzhia region. In these footage clips, 79-year-old Ella Khvostenko picks up a note dropped to her by soldiers of the 65th Separate Mechanized Brigade.

In the village of Pytomnyk in the Kharkiv region, a russian strike UAV attacked a civilian car carrying a man and a woman as they headed to their village. As a result of the strike, the vehicle caught fire. The man behind the wheel died at the scene. The woman managed to escape.
