Even before February 24, 2022, Serhii felt that something was coming. He didn’t panic, but his gut feeling was nagging at him. When russia launched its full-scale invasion, Serhii received a phone call in the morning, and it was the beginning of a new reality. Without hesitation, he travelled to the Irpin district, one of the first areas of the enemy’s offensive on the capital. There, Serhii joined the construction of defensive structures: barricades, anti-tank barriers, sandbag fortifications. Serhii also witnessed the first enemy missile attacks.
