When I was born in Horlivka, I lived for seven years in my native city calmly and cheerfully. But when the shooting started, my parents and I were very afraid. We were sitting at the open door, because we were afraid that a shell would fly in and that they start throwing grenades at residential buildings, as it was in the middle of the city.

We were afraid to go near the windows. This way we were living for a year, and then moved to the city of Lyman. We went to Horlivka from Lyman every two months, because we were transporting all our things. And so it was several times. Peace in my city in Donbas and throughout Ukraine!
