Sophia, Kyiv:
I did not sleep all night because I was checking the air alarms. This morning there was a van with eggs, we bought some and give the woman, who provides us with drinking water. Then we took a coffee and returned home.
Polina, Kyiv:
Okay, now I’m trying to think positively, but I’m also trying to help. For, e.g, previous days, I spent helping in volunteer shelters and standing in line for medicines for our territory guards. I’m trying to keep well, but also, yesterday, I heard heavy sounds of firing near my house and it’s awful… But our army heavily defend us, so I keep calm, sleep in corridor and stay in my native city, in Kyiv.
Sasha, Ukraine:
Thanks God, West Ukraine is more or less in safe than other regions of Ukraine. We are lucky that our city is near the border. Many people from all country continue to come to us. We help them with habitation, food and other things. We believe that our victory will be very soon. #Stop
Tanya, near Lviv:
I live in Lviv oblast and everything is okay here but not in my soul. At the moment I am a volunteer, helping to collect the necessary things and food for those who need them, as well as taking in refugees at home. I dream that the war will end as soon as possible and I will tell you everything in detail. And how are you? do you need any help? I love you everyone and don’t be afraid of asking help if you required. This is the only thing that calms me down now.
Olya, Cherkasy:
I was forced to leave my home, the place where I spent my childhood, where every corner imbued with warm memories of a happy, peaceful life. In the first days of the war, I slept in the corridor, because the bomb shelters were crowded of people and there was no room. I was sitting there and prayed constantly. I went to my grandparents in Cherkasy region, but my mum stayed in Kyiv. She is a nurse, she is liable for military service, she saves our soldiers. The war separated me from her-the dearest person. I haven’t seen her for eight days. At the moment it’s calm here, but I don’t know what will happen tomorrow.
I don’t sleep well and wake up every hour at night. I’m very worried about my friends. We are all scattered all over Ukraine. I am very proud of my people and look forward to meeting my loved ones soon.
