The russian-Ukrainian war has been going on for eight years now. The hot phase of this war, including missile strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure and large-scale invasion of the russian army into our territory began on February 24, 2022. In the Kremlin, they called it a special operation that aims to «demilitarize and de-Nazify» Ukraine. For Ukrainians, it’s a war with the russian federation, the aggressor country – for theur own land, their home, their freedom and independence of the nation. By the way, so far neither Ukraine nor the rest of the world provided any definition of the «operation for de-Europeization» that Muscovy started in Ukraine, in the middle of Europe. It’s a matter of time, understanding and responsibility before the humanity and history. And while the geopolitical community tries to find the appropriate definition of current bloody events despite being overwhelmed by the atrocities of the Kremlin, Ukranians have been fighting a special war against the empire of universal Evil.
Holos Ukrainy opens a new rubric, «Special war» through the eyes of its own correspondents.
It was tough to observe what was going on at Zhytomyr highway since February 24. Fierce fights took place in the capital’s suburbs. Now that the Armed Forces of Ukraine liberated Kyiv region from the fascist assault, the territory heals its severe wounds and amputations of bridges. The sidewalks of the special war are being cured, too.
For many years, I used that road to go to my summerhouse, eagerly waiting to see the blue domes of the church. There’s the place you need to turn to the right, and then on to Warsaw highway built before FIFA World Cup 2012, and then further on beyond Teteriv to my native Polissya… Russian «liberators» walked the path that once led me to my resort… So I managed to reach the golden domes and a little further. The church is still there. But the signs of European culture (as savages from swampy Muscovy understand it) – the new supermarket opened last year, and the building of treatment and rehab center named after B. Hutz were destroyed by ruscists. They did it with all their proletarian hatred for bourgeoisie, exactly as they were taught by their leaders – Lenin, Stalin and Putin. Because they never had anything like this, and they will never have it again, so they just do everything for Ukrainians not to have such a luxury, too…
Hungry russian orcs loot and destroy our supermarkets, shops and food stocks. This must be manifestation of hatred of the «fed-up Europe». Prior to that, russian excavators destroyed the food manufactured in the EU. Wild savages of the 21st century…
