“I told the occupiers, ‘There are sick people here, put down the guns!’ But no one put them down”
Borodianka was bombed on March 1. The last residents were evacuated from there on March 6. The occupation began. And by March 13, 700 people were saved within the walls of psychiatric boarding school. Not only patients, but also ordinary Borodianka residents who were looking for a possibility to survive. Director, Maryna Hanitska, and her small staff carried out that titanic work. Cooking on fires at -12 degrees for hundreds of people. Supervision of the wards, constant anticipation of evacuation that never happened. Search, demand to write down gratitude for Putin. And the Order of Princess Olha as recognition of her efforts.
