Tamara Pryimachenko lives in the small village of Rahivka, near the Belarusian border. For Rahivka residents, the invasion began with an attack on the local school, where five residents died. A woman notes that the occupying troops marched past them in columns for three days and left in three hours. There were so few of them left. And during the occupation, they were surprised at the standard of living of the locals.
