Hello here! Long time no see. I missed so many updates here. The thing is, I lost my access for a while. Even though it was super easy to get it back, I just couldn’t do it for such a long time. But here I am! What’s new?
“Hi! I heard an explosion, but don’t worry, it wasn’t near me.” Just a casual message from grandma in Ukraine. Life under constant Russian aggression.

Ballistic missiles instead of presents for Christmas. That’s what you get when your neighbour is Russia. Russia launched major attack on Ukraine’s energy system: more than 70 missiles, including ballistic missiles, and over 100 drones.
Drone strikes target Ukraine, with over 11 regions under attack. We wish you a merry Christmas we wish you a merry Christmas…
The dichotomy of life in modern Ukraine exemplified by two photos taken an hour apart in Lviv - Christmas celebrations give way to honoring a fallen defender.
All I want for Christmas is enhanced military support for Ukraine.

Every time I see how my hometown Kyiv is being attacked and destroyed by the Russians, I feel as if I’m being scratched by a thin knife, pierced by a thick needle. I’m telling myself it doesn’t matter what I feel – as long as people are alive. But my city is alive too, so it hurts every time.
Kyiv endured a missile strike in the morning 8 missiles were launched at Kyiv by the Russians: they used "Kinzhal" hypersonic missiles and ballistic missiles like Iskander/KN-23. It is already known that 7 people were injured and one person has been confirmed dead.

It’s unfair – the phrase I’ve been repeating for years. I appeal to the highest values, but no one’s coming to balance the scales. Nobody will punish the evil. It’s just a concept we made to keep society in line. In the end, it’s the powerless who suffer. And can anyone stop that? I don’t think so.

We went to Copenhagen with @greenpeace.dk to remind everyone that rusty, leaky, old oil tankers go through European waters daily. We unfurled this banner right as one of them was going past. Not only do they leak oil, they fund Russia's missiles, tanks and bullets that kill Ukrainians daily.
We keep losing our people. Our writers, artists, musicians, actors, athletes. Are there still questions about why the world doesn’t know Ukrainian cultural or sports figures? This is why.
