On 2 January 2024, a Russian missile exploded in a residential neighbourhood of the Solomianskyi district of Kyiv. One of the houses on Mokra Street took the hardest hit.

Svitlana was saved by hiding in the toilet, otherwise she would have been cut by the glass.

When she came downstairs, she saw her house on fire. And the people trapped in the fire were screaming. But despite everything, Svitlana has no hate in her heart — only a sense of the value of human life.
