1000 days of Horror of full-scaled Russian-Ukrainian war.
Today it is a sad anniversary- 1000 days since Russia started its unprovoked full-scaled military aggression against Ukraine.
Tens of thousands civilians killed, nobody can say for sure how many.
Only in Mariupol the oficial numbers of killed civilians range from 25 000 and up to 90.000. Only cemeteries for several square kilometers long outside the city with mass graves know for surre the exact figures.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers killed. The official statistics of the Ukrainian General Stuff say that in Ukraine found their death more than 700 000 Russian soldiers. By now.
Much less , but still many, thousands of Ukrainian soldiers met their death defending their Motherland and their families.
Tens of thousands are considered as missing persons.
Millions of internal and external refugees , who had to flee and leave their homes trying to save their lives.
I guess you can't find a person in Ukraine today , who doesn't have anyone killed or wounded among their friends, relatives or comrades.
Me too.
I can't come home to my native city Mariupol to visit a grave of my father and to talk tohim, as I used to do every year.
I can't meet my relatives and friends with whom I studied at school and University and we used to meet every year and visit our school teacher. To share the stories of our lives, families....
I can't see my son every day and bring him up normally.
This summer, when he came to visit me as usual and to stayed at me for two months, he witnessed for the 1st time in his life massive missile attack. When he heard the explosion of the rocket nearby , he started screaming terrified.
I calmed him down saying that it was not close and in the air.
The next day, when he was still sleeping, few missiles targeted households just a kilometer away. And it was difficult for me to stay calm.
It takes few minutes for a ballistic missile to reach Kyiv.
And you don't have time even to come down to the shelter if you live on upper floors.
Now, when Purin again ordered to destroy Ukraine energy greed , launching last weekend more than 120 missiles of all kinds and 90 Iranian drones called "Shahed" , each of them carries 50 kg of explosive, tens of millions of Ukrainians who still stay in Ukraine are at risk to be freezed at their houses and flats without electricity , heat and water supply.
We have already faced sitting up to 16 hours every day without electricity and water supply in summer , some of us climbing to the 20th floor upstairs.
Difficult even for me, a young person. But unbarrably difficult for elderly people. Many died from heart attacks when it was the temperature was over 40 degrees Celcium outside.
Yesterday a ballistic missile killed about ten civilians and wounded more than 50 in Odessa . They were just walking around or going home.
Just an episode, which has come an awful routine for Ukraine and the World.
Such news do not shock anymore as much, as it used to be in first days and weeks of 2022. People get used to everything.
About two weeks ago I heard a typical noise outside the window. It sounds like an engine of a motorcycle. "Shahed" - I realised. That's why we call them "mopeds" . They fly pretty slow in comparison with missiles- about 200 km/h. And very noisy.
I ran to the balcony to see where it was. In few seconds a saw it hitting multi-stored building just about a kilometre away.
Next morning I got to know from the news, that it flew into the bedroom and killed a 15 year-old girl... He brother, less than 10 , just stayed accidentally that night at his friends...
It was so difficult to watch the faces of her parents, who stayed that moment in another room and survived...
So much grief...
And such stories keep happening every day during 1000 days and nights all around Ukraine ...
