"The couch where my daughter was sitting a minute ago was torn up"

views: 182

The war took away Olha's native home twice. In 2014 – in Horlivka, in 2022 – in Mariupol. Fragments after hitting the apartment almost killed her daughter and Olha herself. They managed to get out of Mariupol by a miracle, but the horrors did not end there, because they had to get to Kyiv through Russian cities.
