Sounds like what’s been going on in Donetsk since 2014…. Or are you only interested from a western and Ukraine perspective?

As I'm a western volunteer in Ukraine, and have never claimed journalistic impartiality, yes, those are the perspectives that interest me. If you have another perspective, you're welcome to start a Substack to express it.

So you only care about one sides deaths. Thanks for the clarity . Evil. The Ukraine and it backers were trying to trigger a response since 2014, sending random bombs at nurseries and suchlike in Donetsk and Luhansk and blowing legs off civvies and children . Seems like they got the response they wanted in ‘22. .. serves western goals, just like you.

I hope there is a special hell reserved for Russians. It would only be fair.

Thank you for this report. It is so important that we continue to receive news from the settlements under fire; we must never forget that these wonderful people are enduring the unthinkable.

My heart breaks every day for the people of Kherson. I was last in the city in September ‘24 and thought it too risky to go back there since. Unbearable life. And Russians just destroy it and kill people for nothing, because they can’t have it. Thank you for sharing this really important story.
