Cary Joji Fukunaga Instagram – Valentina (Melitopol), Vera (Chernihiv), Oksana (Kharkiv) at shelter in Lviv. Valentina came to western Ukraine to celebrate the 35th anniversary of her marriage. Her children gave her and her husband a trip to the Carpathian Mountains, which she had long dreamed of visiting. They spent a wonderful weekend there and were on their way back to the train station when they were told that war had broken out. Now her children and grandchildren have left Ukraine, but the men of the family cannot leave. She stays with them in Lviv, “because who else will take care of them. They are helpless, they are men,”
she smiles. Oksana was forced to flee Kharkiv, which has been under constant shelling since the first day of the war. She did not want to abandon her family and husband, but she had to do it to save her child. “We were just raising our grandchildren. Now we are here. We didn’t ask for this. We did not ask to be ‘liberated’” | Posted on 24/Mar/2022 16:52:49
