“War is bad, peaceful people died, suffered”

“War is bad, peaceful people died, suffered”

    Changes have happened. Everything has been closed down at our place: schools and hospitals. Electricity was just cut off there. Everyone was scared and was hiding in the basements... Then something else happened. Everyone was on pins and needles, all people were nervous. 

My family tried its best for me not to pay too much attention to it because, after all, I was some 6-7 years old then. It could traumatize me. That is why war for me is, of course, a terrible thing, but I am somewhat indifferent about it now. Nevertheless, it is bad, as peaceful people, civilians suffered and died.

   My grandmother has a sister. She lived at Yunkom, a village nearby. And either a shell hit the house there, or a grenade was thrown in – and her arm was injured. She stayed in the hospital together with her husband and another brother.
